"Anything can happen in the derby". These words were said to Sport24.az by the head coach of U-19, Elkhan Abdullayev.
The experienced specialist revealed his expectations from the "Qarabag" - "Neftchi" match to be held this weekend:
"Indeed, for today, "Qarabag" is far superior to "Neftchi". Therefore, it is both the leader of the championship and the clear favorite of the game to be held this weekend. The main issue for the "Neftchi" management and coaching staff is to emerge victorious from the upcoming cup match. Therefore, the coaching staff of the capital club may not take risks in the match with Aghdam. Taking into account the return match of the Cup semi-final, they may also protect some of the key members of the squad".
It should be noted that the "Qarabag" - "Neftchi" match will start on April 19 at 20:00.
