Kukesi take on the visitors Qarabag at the Loro Borici Stadium in the first leg match of UEFA Champions League second qualification round. The match will be played in Shkoder on Wednesday, July 25th.
Kukesi have already gotten to their peak shape barely beating the Maltese from Valletta (0-0, 1-1) in the first qualification round. It is worth noting that the Albanians scored their final goal only in the end of the second leg match. Now the Northeasters are about to face a very experienced Qarabag.

The Azerbaijanis have not been showing great offensive playing style recently. The team plays very carefully and if they score a goal no doubt they will hide themselves in the defense. It is really boring to watch that style for the viewers but it gives Qarabag the needed results. The Horsemen are already a quite famous team for the fans and Europe and last year they performed in the group stage of Champions League. The Azerbaijan Premier League hasn’t started yet so the team can put all of their energy into the Champions League qualification rounds. In the first round Qarabag beat Olimpija from Slovenia (1-0, 0-0).
The favourite in the upcoming fixture is obviously Qarabag. Considering the team from Azerbaijans scores a few goals and allows a few goals too it is likely that the total of the upcoming fixture will be low.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 goals scored.
