Sabah vs Neftci Baku Prediction 26.01.2023

• Competition: Azerbaijan Premier League
• Date: 26.01.2023
• Kickoff: 15:00 UTC / 16:00 CET
• Venue: Bank Respublika Arena (Masazır)

This season could be a turning point for Sabah, one of the not-so-popular clubs from the capital Baku. Sabah has only been in the elite league for 5-6 seasons and this season they could make the biggest success. Investments in the club and carefully chosen reinforcements could pay off as Sabah are in 2nd place in the table with only Quarabag ahead of them. Some clubs with a much greater tradition are below them, such as the rival in this match - Neftci.

The nine-time champion of Azerbaijan is not having such a good season so far. They are in 3rd place with a whopping 12 points more than the first-ranked team. After all, the 0-4 defeat at home against Qarabag showed that they do not have the quality for the title. A few days ago, Neftci played a friendly match against Serbian champions Red Star and they lost 1-0

Sabah Baku vs Neftci Baku pick: BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE

Both clubs have an average of goals in their matches of 3.00 in the current season. In August last year at this same stadium, Sabah beat Neftci 2-1, and in October it was 3-2 at Neftci Stadium, also in favor of Sabah. Sabah showed that they have a solution for Neftci and that they can achieve a very good result with the offensive style game. It is difficult to predict whether the home team will manage to win for the third time in a row, and something much more realistic and easier to predict is that both teams will again manage to score at least one goal.
