Kokand-1912 just closed things out with a 3-0 win in the league, but before that they lost almost every match, while Neftchi lost 1-3 in the Asian cup and now return to league duty. The visitors are still clear at the top, and this is a game where the lower side in the table has to face a tough task. Kokand-1912 have collected only 23 points from 23 matches, with a blunt attack and a leaky defense all season, while Neftchi have scored 52 goals in the league and conceded only 19, a clear difference on both sides of the pitch. This game is likely to see Neftchi as the side that has to open up and attack, because Kokand-1912 will probably sit deep and wait for the chance to counter. If the hosts can hold firm long enough, the game could drag on, but if Neftchi break through first, the direction will likely flow one way.
