Neftci will welcome Dinamo Tbilisi to Baku for the second leg of their UEFA Champions League qualifier on Wednesday.
The home side secured a 2-1 away victory in the first leg of the tie played in Georgia last week. Namiq Alasgarov and Emin Makhmudov scored in each half to give the Azerbaijan champions a crucial away win.
Dinamo Tbilisi are one of the 16 seeded teams in this round but will have their work cut out if they are to progress to the next round of qualifiers.
The winner of this tie will take on Greek heavyweights Olympiacos in the second round of the qualifiers next week.

Neftci vs Dinamo Tbilisi Prediction
Dinamo Tbilisi were the better side in the first leg but were let down by poor finishing in attack, whereas Neftci were more clinical. The Georgian champions need a victory away from home and they are very much capable of getting it if they perform at the levels expected.
The hosts are likely to sit back and protect their lead, making this a potentially cagey fixture. We are predicting a share of the spoils, with goals to be scored at both ends.
Prediction: Neftci 1-1 Dinamo Tbilisi
