Gabala are going to meet Sumgayit, on Friday, in their first home match of the Topaz Premier League”s second stage. The opponents for the 11th tour game are of outsiders on the league table. The squad of Yuri Semi will be pushing hard on responding to the unexpected loss to Sumgayit in the previous stage. The pair met for their first-ever 2 years ago with 2 matches for each of the last 2 seasons.
Having already one tie in the season, both teams will face for their 6th ever. The red-black side are having the lead on the range of all 5 matches that are only league experiences. Gabala were keeping the winning streak of all the ties up to the last game when we lost to Sumgayit in the early season. But anyway we were able to score also in that show. Gabala”s possession are evident also by the 11:5 difference.
Gabala”s goals were scored by 9 players. Luis Hilario and Victor Mendy were capitalized most with 2 goals for each. Opponent Ruslan Gurbanov also scored two.
Gabala found way to the opponent net 6 times in the 1st half making 5 goals in the second period.
We will try and keep up the winning run of the last 2 home matches where we allowed conceded a goal. This is a good evidence to the efficiency of the games, also as Gabala scored 9 at two home events altogether.
