Viktoria Plzen vs Qarabag
Champions League Qualification
Date: Tuesday, 23 August 2022
Kick-off at 20:00 UK/ 21:00 CET
Venue: Doosan Arena.
Both Viktoria and Qarabag are coming on top of long winning streaks, and are high on confidence. They are just a single win away from securing a ticket to the upcoming edition of the Champions League.
Viktoria are part of the Czech Republic top flight and they had lifted the title the previous season in style.
At the end of the regular season, they were placed second in the table, but in the Championship Round, they managed to surge ahead and at the end of the campaign, and had a lead of 7 points at the top.
All along they had scored goals in huge numbers as well.
Meanwhile Qarabag are the reigning Azerbaijani champions and at the end of the previous league season they had a lead of 19 points at the top of the table.
They had scored 30 more goals than any other team in the whole tournament and every other squad had let in more than double the number of goals they had conceded.
Considering these observation,s as well as previous head-to-head scorecards, expect goals to come in plenty in this crucial second leg of the playoff round in the CL Qualifiers.
Viktoria were unbeaten in 42 of their past 44 overall fixtures and in the process they had gone on two separate 7-game winning streaks as well as 2 separate 4-match winning stretches.
On the other hand, Qarabag were unbeaten in 27 of their previous 28 overall fixtures, and in the process they had gone on separate 9-match, as well as 5-fixture winning streaks.
Taking into account these observations, expect a goal-fest this Tuesday between the two teams.
