Sumqayit and Fehervar will trade tackles in the first leg of their UEFA Conference League second round qualifier on Thursday (July 25th). The home side are coming into the game on the back of a 2-2 draw against Adana Demirspor in a friendly last week.

Their last competitive game came in May 2024 when they claimed maximum points with a 1-0 home win over Gabala in their final game of the Azerbaijan Premier League last season. Erik Sorga's 52nd-minute strike proved to be the difference between the two sides.

Fehervar, meanwhile, also played out a 2-2 draw in a friendly with Goztepe. They were two goals up by the 21st minute courtesy of Tobias Christensen's brace but Ahmed Ildiz and Kubilay Kanatsizkus scored to draw the game level.

Vidi's last competitive game saw them share the spoils in a goalless draw at home to DVTK in their final game of the Hungarian NB1 in May. The draw saw them finish fourth in the league to get to this stage of the qualifiers. Sumqayit also finished fourth to book their spot in the Conference League.

The winner of this tie will face either Omonia or Torpedo Kutaisi in the next round of the qualifiers.

Sumqayit vs Fehervar Prediction

Sumqayit will be playing only the fourth European game in their history and are still seeking their first win in continental competitions.

Fehervar are competing in the Conference League for the third time. They are yet to make it to the group stage of Europe's third-tier club competition, having been eliminated by Koln in the playoff stage two seasons ago.

We are backing the visitors to claim a narrow victory with goals to be scored at both ends.

Prediction: Sunqayit 1-2 Fehervar
