"It is difficult to make predictions in the final. The team you consider a favorite may not live up to expectations".
Yashar Seyidov said these words in a statement to Sport24.az, Idman.biz reports.
The experienced functionary shared his expectations from the final match of the Azerbaijan Cup to be held today: "On paper, the favorite is Qarabag. But Sabah can also surprise. Qarabag will be more comfortable in this match since it will represent our country in the Champions League. Of course, they were promised a certain cash prize. I do not believe that the players will refuse this amount. If Sabah fails to win the cup, they will be left out of the European cups. Therefore, the "owls" should play more carefully and with their hearts. The management pays them a sufficient salary. The players should be responsible for the salaries they earn".
Today's match, which will be held at the Sumgait city stadium named after Mehdi Huseynzade, will start at 19:00.
