"Kapaz" remains one of the weakest teams in the Azerbaijan Premier League and occupies the penultimate place in the standings. The club is only two points ahead of Sabail from the last line. The hosts have conceded 46 goals in 20 matches and are the league's weakest defensive team. Nevertheless, in the last two rounds of the championship, Kapaz managed to earn four points, beating Sabah (3:2) and drawing with the second Premier League team, Araz (0:0).

Approximate composition: Santos - Aliyev, Almeida, Ba, Braga, Jafarov, Khvalko, Pacu, Verdaska, Huseynli, Manafov

Keshla

Current form
Last season, Shamakhi took first place in the First Division and received a ticket to the Premier League, where it does not intend to fight for survival. The team currently ranks eighth out of ten, but is only four points ahead of Sabail from last place. January started with three defeats in a row for the club, which is not surprising, because we had to play with the leaders of the championship. Ayhan Abbasov's team lost to Karabakh (2:3), Zira (1:2) and Neftchi (0:1). In the first match of February, we managed to win a home victory over Sumgait (1-0) from seventh place.
Disqualifications and injuries
The guests have no problems with the line-up on the eve of the 23rd round.
Interesting betting trends
- None of the last six matches of the guests ended in a draw.
- The team has lost three of the last four matches.
Provisional squad: Ricardo Fernandez - Abbasov, Adilkhanov, Bakic, Maharramli, Msanga, Pushi, Radenovich, Rustamli, Veremeev, Konate
Trends
The bet is an exact score of 1:1
Two of the last five face-to-face matches ended with this score
7.00Bet Both will score
This bet has played in three of the last five away matches.
1.83The bid is the number 1 in the final bill
The pattern has worked in five of the last six away matches.
1.64Tip and bets
The hosts are now in an extremely difficult situation and may soon drop to the last place, which guarantees relegation from the elite division. At the same time, the team played well in recent matches, losing only one round out of five. We believe that the Tovuz club can achieve results on its own field, besides, Shamakhi has not been impressive lately.
Our forecast is an Asian handicap (0) on the "Kapaz" for 1.70
Bet on the total
Due to the rather modest composition, both teams cannot rely on the attack, therefore they are among the least productive clubs in the championship. Most likely, the opponents will bet on defense in a face-to-face duel, so you shouldn't bet on total here anymore.
Our forecast is a total of less than 2.5 goals in 1.68
Betting on corners
We pointed out above that the teams are not playing so well offensively and will probably pay more attention to defensive actions, so we'll bet that there won't be many serves from the corner flag in this match.
Our forecast is a total of less than 9.5 corners in 1.80
