Today at 21:45, the Match of the final 6th round of the group stage of the Europa League between the Azerbaijani Karabakh and the German Freiburg will begin at the Republican Stadium Bahramov.
The meeting will be judged by the Belarusian arbitration team led by Alexei Kulbakov. Portuguese will work on VAR, led by Tiago Martinsh.
The tournament position in the group “G”:
1. “Freiburg” – 13 points (5 matches)
2. “Karabakh” – 7 (5)
3. “Nant” – 6 (5)
4. “Olympiacos” – 2 (5).
In the parallel match “Olympiacos”, Nantes will accept. For Karabakh, it is important that the French could not beat the Greeks. In this case, the result of the game in Baku will not matter. But if “NANTA” manages to defeat the unmotivated “Olympiacos”, then in this case the team of Gurban Gurbanov to take 2nd place, it will be necessary to win with Freiburg.
Meanwhile, eight potential rivals of Karabakh are already known, with whom our team can play in the 1/16 finals of the Europa League if it takes 2nd place in the group. These are clubs that took 3 places in the groups of the Champions League. Namely, “Ajax” (Netherlands), “Bayer” (Germany), “Barcelona” (Spain), “Sporting” (Portugal), “Salzburg” (Austria), Shakhtar (Ukraine), “Seville” (Spain ) and “Juventus” (Italy).
If Nant is ahead of Karabakh, then the champion of Azerbaijan will go to the 1/16 finals of the conferences league, where its rivals will be the 2nd teams of groups. Here, none of the eight potential opponents have been defined, but it is clear that in the conferences league rivals will be much more modest than in the Europa League.
