Qarabag vs Dundalk Prediction & Betting tips
The diptych in the preliminary rounds of the Champions League between the Azerbaijani champion Qarabag and the Irish champion Dundalk is still fully open after the 1-1 draw from last week’s preliminary game. Thanks to its goal, Qarabag has the best papers for reaching the next round, but will have to be on its guard in its return against Dundalk for its own public.
Qarabag:
The Azerbaijani league is of course not highly regarded, although Qarabag is the only club in the country that ever managed to make it to the main tournament of the Champions League. In the 2017-2018 season, The Horsemen managed to stunt by holding Diego Simeone’s Atletico Madrid on a draw both at home and away. Qarabag would like to do that trick once again, although Azerbaijani champion will first have to survive several preliminaries for that.
Last week’s 1-1 draw at Dundalk’s visit is a step in the right direction. Mahir Emreli was able to give Qarabag a lead on the instructions of Jaime Romero, but the visitors then left several opportunities to decide the diptych early. These failures ultimately cost the Azerbaijani expensive, because the late equalizer of Dundalk striker Pat Hoban will have to be careful in their return. The team can in any case rely on its excellent home balance, as the last defeat for its own audience was almost eight months ago. In addition, coach Gurban Gurbanov’s team now has plenty of European experience, since it has been continuously present in the Europa League or Champions League group stage since 2014.
Dundalk:
The Irish champion Dundalk is of course the obvious underdog on Wednesday evening in Baku, but the visitors believe in a stunt. “If you see how we fought back in the first match, I think that means something about our qualities,” said goalkeeper Gary Rogers. ‘Perhaps there is more quality and talent in the Irish competition than we think. Such European competitions are great opportunities to show that. ”
Dundalk indeed deserves praise for her team performance in the first leg, but can of course wet her chest for the return. The Irish have to score anyway, so the team of coach Vinny Perth will have to take risks. In addition, the long journey of some 5,000 kilometers The Lilywhites may be troubling – that is almost as far as from Dublin to New York. Nevertheless, this kind of competition is of course for the Irish people, so they will be full on Wednesday. In addition, Dundalk played with a refined B-team last weekend, so Perth has done everything possible to get its players as fit as possible to kick off.
