Qarabag were 3-1 winners in the first leg away from home
Ferencvaros have managed only three clean sheets in nine games
Recommended bet: Both teams to score – No
Qarabag are regulars in the Champions League qualifying rounds but the Azerbaijani side now stand on the brink of making it through for just the second time.
They returned from Hungary with a 3-1 advantage after their first leg win over Ferencvaros and will look to join Europe's elite for only the second time after their 2017-18 journey saw them tackling the likes of Chelsea, Atletico Madrid and Roma.
Ferencvaros face an uphill task to turn things around if manager Robbie Keane is going to bring them to the league phase.
Team news
Boss Gurban Gurbanov changed all of his starting XI as Qarabag were beaten at home by Sumqayit in their domestic league opener on Friday night. It was an unexpected loss but the fact the manager went for sweeping changes was an indication where his priorities are.
It is likely he will revert to the team that started in Hungary with Spanish midfielder Jonathan Montiel still sidelined.
Ferencvaros, meanwhile, had the weekend off. Midfielder Bence Otvos went off at half-time in the first leg and is a doubt for this game, while Krisztian Lisztes is a long-term absentee for Keane's side.
The stats
Both teams have scored in just three of Qarabag's last 11 games.
Ferencvaros have only managed three clean sheets in nine games this season in all competitions.
Barnabas Varga has scored six goals in his last seven games for Ferencvaros.
Marko Jankovic has scored in his last two starts for Qarabag.
Qarabag are unbeaten in three games against Hungarian opponents previously.

Prediction
Qarabag came from a goal down at half-time last week in Hungary to win 3-1, leaving Ferencvaros and their Irish boss Keane with a mountain to climb in Baku if they are to reach the promised land of the Champions League.
Qarabag have won three of their five Champions League qualifiers to nil and, in total, both teams have scored in only three of their last 11 games.
With a two-goal cushion to lean on, manager Gurbanov is likely to be risk-averse in this second leg. They had the lion's share of possession last week and Ferencvaros were limited to just four shots on target.
In the previous round, Keane's side played out a scoreless draw away at Ludogorets before taking care of business in the home leg.
They do not have that luxury now and may face a stubborn home side at the Tofiq Bahramov Stadium in the Azerbaijani capital.
