Neftchi have not been in the leading positions in the Azerbaijan championship for a long time.

Occupying the seventh line, the Baku club is only four points ahead of the main outsider of the league, Kapaz. It was against the club from the last line that the hosts achieved their last victory. Then Neftchi beat Kapaz with a score of 2:1. After that, the club played two draws, with Turan (1:1) and Sabah (1:1). In the last round, the hosts suffered a defeat from Araz (1:2).

Keshla
AzerbaijanCurrent form
Shamakhi took first place in the First Division last season and received a ticket to the Premier League, where it does not intend to fight for survival. The team currently occupies eighth place in the standings, ahead of only Sabail and Kapaz. The visitors are only three points ahead of the last place, so it is not possible to feel safe. In the last four rounds, the visitors suffered three defeats, losing to Zira (1:2) and twice to Karabakh (0:1 and 2:3). They managed to beat only Baku Sabah (3:1) in the last home match, and before that, at their stadium, they managed to snag a point in a meeting with one of their main competitors, Sabail (0:0).

1.65Tip and bets
The rivals occupy adjacent lines in the tournament table, which is hardly surprising, because there is no difference in class between the rivals at the moment. This is also proven by the recent history of face-to-face matches - the last three matches ended in a draw. Considering that both clubs have hardly won lately, we will risk betting on a draw.
Our prediction is a draw at 3.80
Bet on total
Both teams have had serious problems converting scoring chances in recent matches, which has had a significant impact on the results. The opponents' crisis is unlikely to end in a face-to-face match, so it is logical to assume that we will not see many goals scored here either. We suggest betting on the total under.
Our prediction is total under 2.5 goals for 1.80
Bet on corners
We mentioned above that the teams are not playing well in attack and will probably pay more attention to defensive actions, so we will bet that there will not be many corner flag deliveries in this match.
Our prediction is total under 9.5 corners for 1.85
