Qarabag vs Chelsea Prediction: The Blues Aim for Third Consecutive Away Victory

–Chelsea will visit Republik Tofiq Bahramov Stadium to face Qarabag on Thursday (6/11). The Blues are targeting a third consecutive victory in the Champions League this season to improve their chances of finishing in the top group.
Tim under 21 asuhan Enzo Maresca have bounced back from their first-week defeat against Bayern Munich to secure a home victory over Benfica and Ajax. The results broughtThe Bluesis in 11th place.
In the domestic competition, this London-based team has just experienced a revival in two away matches. This has boosted their morale, at least allowing them to steal three points from their opponents' home ground.
While the home team is entering this match with a poor record, having never won in their seven previous encounters in European competitions against English clubs.
However, Qarabag has the same points as Chelsea and has collected six points from two wins. Their ranking is also not very different. If this team coached by Gurban Gurbanov manages to take points, their chances of rising in the rankings are quite high.
CompetitionThe HorsemenvsThe BluesThis will be broadcasted onStreaming platform VidiodanbeIN Sports 1On Thursday (11/6) early in the morning, at 00:45 WIB. Here is a brief review and prediction for this match.
Qarabag
Ramil Sheydayev, the attacker, was not included in Qarabag's squad for the Champions League. He is definitely not going to play for this team, known as The Horsemen, throughout the group stage until January.
Joni Montiel made a brief appearance at the end of last weekend after recovering from an injury that kept him out for a year. The Madrid-born attacking midfielder will be absent from this crucial match against Chelsea due to his fitness status.
After scoring a goal and providing an assist for the Azerbaijani champion against Imisli last weekend, Abdellah Zoubir is determined to make a significant contribution on the left wing for the home team.
Meanwhile, Andrade topped the team's top scorers list after three matches. The attacking midfielder hopes to add more goals to break through the visitors' defense.
Predict startingline-up The Horsemen(4-2-3-1): Mateusz Kochalski (goalkeeper); Matheus Silva, Bahlul Mustafazada, Kevin Medina, Elvin Cafarquliyev (defender); Pedro Bicalho, Kady Borges (midfielder); Camilo Duran, Patrick Andrade, Abdellah Zoubir (attacking midfielder); Nariman Akhundzade (striker).
Chelsea
The BluesStill without Cole Palmer, Levi Colwill, Benoit Badiashile, and Dario Essugo, who are injured, while Mykhaylo Mudryk still does not have a clear time frame for his suspension due to violating anti-doping regulations.
After serving a suspension following his red card against Benfica, Joao Pedro, the goal-scorer in last weekend's victory over Spurs, is expected to return to the starting lineup after missing the big win against Ajax in the third week.
Liam Delap may make his Champions League debut for this West London club after recently recovering from a thigh injury. A league suspension in the victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers in the EFL Cup showed that he is not yet fully recovered.
After coming on as a substitute against the team managed by Thomas Frank, Estevao is likely to return to Maresca's starting lineup for his second appearance in European competition and try to increase his statistics.
In a match that is relatively easy for the visiting team, the coach might be tempted to give Moises Caicedo some rest. His choice will fall on Romeo Lavia as a replacement and also to improve fitness.
Predict startingline-up The Blues(4-2-3-1): Robert Sanchez (goalkeeper); Malo Gusto, Josh Acheampong, Tosin Adarabioyo, Marc Cucurella (defender); Romeo Lavia, Enzo Fernandez (midfielder); Estevao, Joao Pedro, Jamie Gittens (attacking midfielder); Marc Guiu (striker).
