The Turan Tovuz boss will be happy not to have any fitness concerns at all ahead of this game thanks to a fully injury-free group available for selection.

Team News: Sumgayit

Sumgayit manager Aykhan Abbasov has a number of players out of action. Kamran Quliyev (unknown injury) and Kristijan Velinovski (unknown injury) are those who can’t be considered.

Prediction

Our thinking is that Sumgayit will likely create enough chances to find the back of the net against this Turan Tovuz side, although that might not be as many as they’ll concede. We’re expecting a very close game with a 2-1 victory for Turan Tovuz at the end of this one. It’s a very tough call.
