Qarabag vs Ludogorets Prediction and Betting Tips | August 6th 2024

Qarabag will invite Ludogorets to the Tofiq Bahramov Stadium on Tuesday in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League third qualifying round. The hosts have not qualified for the group stage since the 2017-18 campaign while the visitors last made it to the group stage in the 2018-19 edition.

The hosts registered a comfortable 7-0 win on aggregate in the second qualifying round over Lincoln Red Imps last month. Juninho scored four goals while Yassine Benzia picked up an assist in the first leg and scored in the second leg.

The visitors eked out a narrow 2-1 win on aggregate over Dinamo Minsk last month. Goals from Bernard Tekpetey and Todor Nedelev in the first leg helped them register a 2-0 home win and they lost 1-0 in the second leg.

Both teams registered a win in their respective league games last week. The hosts won 4-1 in their away meeting against Araz Naxcivan in the Azerbaijan Premier League and the visitors recorded a 5-1 win over Arda in the First League.

Qarabag vs Ludogorets Prediction

The Horsemen are unbeaten in their last 10 home games in all competitions, recording eight wins. They have scored at least two goals in these games and will look to build on that form.

The Eagles have suffered losses in their last four away games in all competitions and have failed to score in these games as well. They have suffered six consecutive losses in away games in Champions League qualifiers, which is a cause for concern.

Considering the Blue and Whites' home record in the competition, better goalscoring form this season, and the visitors' poor away record in Champions League qualifiers, we back the hosts to register a comfortable win.

Prediction: Qarabag 3-1 Ludogorets
