Qarabag FK vs Olimpija Ljubljana: UEFA Europa League Qualifiers Live Stream, Form Guide, Head to Head, Schedule, Fixture and Probable Lineups

Qarabag FK will host Olimpija Ljubljana in the second leg of their UEFA Europa League playoff round at the Tofiq Bahramov Republican Stadium on Thursday. The Azerbaijani champions chalked up a healthy advantage in Slovenia last week. Naturally, Ljubljana must overturn a sizeable deficit in Baku in order to advance.

Qarabag enjoyed a strong start to the first leg. The visitors raced into a 2-0 lead before halftime. Despite the best efforts of Ljubljana, no further goals were scored at Stozice Stadium. Added to the agony, the hosts ended up finishing the game with 10 men following the sending-off of David Sualehe. Gurban Gurbanov’s side appeared to be heading for a sixth straight victory in all competitions on Sunday. They found themselves 1-0 up against Kapaz with only a handful of minutes remaining. But an 86th-minute equaliser from Cavad Karimov cancelled out Juninho’s ninth-minute opener. Still, the Horsemen have lost just one of their four Azerbaijan Premier League matches this season.

On the other hand Ljubljana, they can count themselves somewhat unfortunate to have lost the first leg 2-0. Joao Henriques’s men racked up 10 attempts while edging the possession. However, they failed to find a way through. To make matters worse, the Dragons suffered a 4-2 thrashing at the hands of Celje last time out. It would not be unfair to say that Ljubljana has made an indifferent start to the campaign. The Dragons recorded four wins, one draw and five losses in their last 10 outings. That said, the Slovenian champions will be hopeful of turning things around in Baku.
