Zurich Preview – Can Zurich use home advantage?
At Stadion Letzigrund on Wednesday evening, FC Zurich will look to overturn a one-goal deficit against Qarabag FK following last week’s 3-2 loss in Azerbaijan which became the hosts’ third defeat on the trot in all competitions.
A 0-0 draw at home with Luzern in the subsequent Swiss Super League fixture saw Zurich stem the bleeding but although the hosts have lost just twice in their last 23 home games in all competitions, they’ve managed just three wins from their previous nine home ties in the Champions League.
Qarabag Preview – Can Qarabag’s consistency tell?
By contrast, Qarabag have produced a solid sequence of results over some time now as the visitors have lost just once in their last 22 matches in all competitions, picking up a total of 16 wins in the process which appears to bode well for this upcoming 2nd leg in Switzerland.
The Azerbaijan outfit have also lost just once in their last seven outings on the road at Champions League level and their consistent nature may well end up being the difference between the two sides on Wednesday evening.
