1.70Tip and bets
Both teams prefer a cautious game, devoting a lot of time to defense. As a rule, there is no goal-scoring extravaganza in matches involving them. Considering that the opponents will play each other, we come to the conclusion that there will be no over-total in goals scored in the match.
Our prediction is total under 2.5 goals with odds of 1.70
Bet on the outcome
Two weeks ago, Samir Abasov took charge of Neftchi, and so far under his leadership there have been no defeats: a victory over Sabail (3:1) and a draw with Sabah Baku. The new coach has yet to implement his ideas, and while he is integrating into the team with his ideas, it is unlikely that he will be able to win against such a strong opponent.
Our prediction is that Araz will not lose with odds of 1.54
Bet on corners
We mentioned above that the teams spend a lot of time on defense, so we'll bet that there won't be many corner flag passes in this match.
Our prediction is total under 8.5 corners with odds of 1.75
