Our prediction for this Europa Conference League match:
Following a 2-0 win over Petrocub in Moldova, Sabah Baku will look to seal their spot in the Conference League third qualifying round when they face Petrocub at Bank Respublika Arena on Thursday. Sabah Baku proved their worth in the first leg and, as a result, they are now with one foot in round 3. With no fresh injury worries to report, boss Valdas Dambrauskas is unlikely to make changes to the team that defeated Petrocub a week ago.
The Moldovans, on the other hand, will have a mountain to climb in Thursday’s clash as Sabah Baku are a real force to be reckoned with at home. Given Petrocub’s shaky defence, we predict that the Azeri are going to record yet another triumph in this double-header. All Popescu, Rotaru, and Puscas are in line for a recall to the starting XI, speaking of the visiting team.
