Qarabag Team News
Qarabag has been dominating the Azerbaijan Premier League for a long time, winning the league title for nine out of the last ten years. They are also the main favorites this season to continue in the same rhythm.
However, Qarabag can also boast of impressive success on the European stage, achieving notable results for years. In the previous season, they came very close to qualifying for the 1/8-finals in the Conference League but were eliminated by Gent after a tense two-leg match, which was decided by a penalty shootout.
Throughout their history of participating in the qualifying rounds for this competition, they have always successfully advanced to the third round in all eight previous cases. Qarabag has already demonstrated serious attacking potential, but whether they will maintain it now, especially since they will have to chase a deficit from the first leg in Poland in the return match, will be revealed on Wednesday.
Rakow Team News
On the other hand, Rakow is a club that participated in European competitions for the first time in the 2021/22 season. Despite lacking experience, they performed well on the European stage. Unfortunately, in the previous two years, they were eliminated in the playoffs for the Conference League.
However, the current Polish champions started this season very strongly. They secured their first three points in the Ekstraklasa league by defeating Jagiellonia 3-0 at home. In the first round of Champions League qualifiers, they eliminated Flora with an aggregate score of 4-0, and then in the first leg of the second round against Qarabag, they secured a 3-2 victory.
Although it seemed that the match in Poland would end in a draw, the home team managed to secure a minimal advantage with Sonny Kittel’s goal in additional time.
