A place in the Champions League second qualifying round will be at stake when TNS and Sabah Baku face each other in the return leg of their first-round tie. The Welsh champions have a mountain to climb after suffering a 2-0 defeat in Azerbaijan, where they managed just two goal attempts throughout the 90 minutes. TNS have been in impressive form overall, winning seven of their last ten matches, while averaging 1.5 goals per game during that spell. The hosts should attack from the first whistle, with experienced forward Ryan Brobbel pushing for a place in the starting XI. Despite their quality at home, TNS have failed to keep a clean sheet in any of their last four home outings, which is another cause for concern.
Sabah Baku, on the other hand, are in an excellent position to progress after a disciplined display in the first leg. The Azerbaijani side have collected seven wins from their last ten matches and have been particularly impressive on the road, winning each of their last three away fixtures while conceding just one goal in the process. Defender Steve Solvet misses out through suspension following his red card in the first meeting, but Sabah possess enough pace and experience to punish TNS on the counterattack. With confidence high after last week's victory, the visitors should have opportunities to finish the job.
Sabah looked the stronger side in the first leg and should benefit from the spaces TNS will leave behind. Therefore Away Win should be considered, alongside Sabah to Win to Nil and Under 2.5 goals (the first meeting produced only two goals, and Sabah are likely to focus on protecting their advantage).
This Champions League match will be played on Tuesday 14 July 2026 at 18:30.
