In this Premier League match between Sumqayit FK and Sabah FK held on 17 March, 2024, Sabah FK emerged as the winners with a score of 2-1. Sabah's victory wasn't a fluke but a result of a more excellent statistical performance.

Sabah FK dominated the offensive game by registering 8 shots on target against Sumqayit's 3. While Sumqayit did manage to put up 7 shots, their accuracy was lacking as all of these shots were off target, in comparison to Sabah's mere 3. This shows a clear dominance in offensive play by Sabah FK, who not only created more opportunities but managed to find the target more often than Sumqayit FK.

Moreover, Sabah FK was also superior in utilising, set-piece situations, as illustrated by 6 corner kicks versus Sumqayit’s 4. Despite Sumqayit FK showing more aggressive play with 14 fouls compared to Sabah's 8, it did not translate into a stronger defensive performance or more goal-scoring opportunities. Both teams made an equal number of substitutions, showing a similar level of tactical flexibility.

Interestingly, the offside trap seemed to be in effect with Sumqayit FK’s defence as they caught Sabah FK off-side 3 times, compared to their 2, but this didn't seem to have a significant impact on the final score with Sabah FK scoring 2 goals.

Lastly, the game remained fair with no red or yellow card offences from either side. This shows an excellent degree of discipline from both teams, which is commendable.

In conclusion, even though Sumqayit FK fought well, their inability to convert attempts into goals, fewer shots on target, and less effective use of corner kicks put them at a disadvantage. Sabah FK, on the other hand, took full advantage of their opportunities, which was instrumental in their win. Being more accurate with their attempts on goal and capitalising on set-pieces played a significant role in their success. This analysis provides valuable insight for bettors who base their predictions on team performances and in-depth statistical data.
