Team Form

PFK Simurq Zaqatala has shown mixed results in their last five matches (L, L, W, D, W). They suffered two heavy away defeats — a 0-6 loss at Sahdag on October 7 and a 0-3 defeat at Karvan on September 16. However, at home they looked solid, beating Baku Sporting 3-0 on September 10. Their most recent home outing was a 2-1 win over Safa Baku back in May, so their limited home sample (1 win, 0 draws, 0 losses) offers some hope.

Sabail FC enters the match with a steadier recent record (D, W, W, D, L). They drew 1-1 at Karvan on October 8, recorded away wins over Baku Sporting (1-0) and home wins over Energetik Mingechevir (2-1), and also drew 1-1 at Khankendi on September 3. The only blemish was a 4-1 away loss to Energetik Mingechevir back in May. Sabail’s two wins and two draws in their last five outings underline their consistency.

Head-to-Head Record

The H2H record is heavily tilted towards Sabail FC, who have won all five previous meetings. Last season, Sabail won 3-0 at Simurq on May 6, 2026, and 1-0 at the same venue on February 5, 2026. Earlier, on October 15, 2025, Sabail won 1-0 at home. Cup meetings also went Sabail’s way — 3-1 in December 2021 and 3-2 in January 2021. In those five games, Sabail scored 11 goals while Simurq managed only 3. There have been no draws, and Simurq has never beaten Sabail.

League Table Positions

Sabail FC is sitting in 3rd place with 8 points from 4 games (2 wins, 2 draws, 0 losses). They have scored 5 and conceded 3, showing defensive solidity. PFK Simurq Zaqatala, on the other hand, is 6th with 4 points (1 win, 1 draw, 2 losses), having shipped 11 goals — the second‑worst defence in the division. At home, Simurq has played just one league game and won it 3-0, but the sample is tiny. Sabail’s away record is unbeaten (1 win, 1 draw, 2 goals for, 1 against), ranking them 3rd in the away standings. The 4‑point gap and the goal difference advantage clearly favour Sabail.
