Our prediction for the match Qarabag vs Malmo
“The Stallions” have long-established dominance in Azerbaijani football. Once the title went to Neftci, but that was just a one-time exception against the backdrop of the unconditional leadership of Gurbanov’s wards. And now they look like the clear favourites of the new competition. As for “the Sky Blue”, the team have more competition. Still, the club managed to regain the title in 2023. And now it has created a comfortable gap from the pursuers.
Both teams started in the Champions League qualification. And they were eliminated from the competition, not reaching the group stage, once again. The Azerbaijanis knocked out Lincoln Red Imps and Ludogorets (it is reasonable to mention a 7-2 result in extra time in Razgrad), but showed nothing against Dinamo Zagreb, losing both matches with a total score of 0-5. Rydstrom’s wards knocked out KI Klaksvik and PAOK (they won on the away field after a home draw). Still, Sparta Prague beat “the Scandinavians” in both matches with an identical score – 2-0.
Both clubs started in the Europa League last week. Qarabag was visiting London, and nothing worked out in the struggle with Tottenham – the team lost with a 0-3 result. The Swedes also started with the British opponent – they hosted Rangers. There it didn’t turn out much better: the team conceded twice and didn’t respond.
