Remember that the away goals rule is no longer valid
With the decision to eliminate this rule, the playoffs in which the two teams score the same number of goals in the two matches will not be decided by the number of goals scored away from home, but two 15-minute overtimes will be played at the end of the second leg and in the event that the teams score the same number of goals or no goals during this extra time, kicks from the penalty mark will determine the team that qualifies for the next phase of the competition.

No possible changes in the eleven
Gurban Gurbanov does not like to rotate his team, so we are likely to see a repeat of last week's starting roster. However, the coach did not rule out one or two changes, and it is possible that Marko Vešović will be replaced by Abbas Hüseynov, who was injured and then ill.
Coach's words about his goalkeeper
"He needs experience, but I trust him," the coach said, and that means we should see the young Georgian tonight.
Confidence in goal
New goalkeeper Luka Gugeshashvili has caused some debate; he saved Qarabağ on several occasions in France, but also made some mistakes.
Gurbanov was not too worried and feels that the player has great potential.

Marseille to finish what it has done in France
The second place in the French league is looking to make its mark in Europe after failing in the Europa League, Marseille was eliminated from the European tournament after finishing third in Group E, the club was behind Galatasaray and Lazio and therefore qualified for the Conference League, The first match against Qarabag did not represent a great challenge for the French team that despite not having the possession managed to score three times that will give them much more tranquility in the second leg, as for the league Marseille comes from losing to Clermont with a score of 2-0, no doubt a tough defeat that could affect their morale.
Qarabag with a chance to make a splash
The Azerbaijan league team was part of group H in the conference League, sharing the group with Basel, Omonia and Kairat, with only one game lost Qarabag was placed in second position with eleven points, while Basel took the first position undefeated, the first game against Marseille Qarabag had possession of the ball but failed to take the lead, even managed to discount the score five minutes before the end of the game, now at home it is expected that the team can have a more dignified performance.
Who is still in the running for the title?
The Conference League begins to separate contenders from mere aspirants, the second leg will define who will advance to the next round, however it seems that the tie is already defined, Marseille took the lead by defeating Qarabag 3-1 at home, now the Azerbaijan league team has the opportunity to do the feat and come back at home.
