Sabah FK vs Slavia Praha

Sabah and Slavia Prague both arrive in Baku without a point from Champions League matchday one, making this an early must-win. Sabah are playing in Europe's top competition for the first time in their history and sit second in the Azerbaijan Premier League. Slavia Prague are reigning Czech champions and currently top their own league table. Sabah were beaten 4-0 by Manchester United on their European bow but remain unbeaten domestically, with forward Joy-Lance Mickels their main source of goals. Slavia Prague lost a tight 3-2 game to RC Lens, though they have won four of their last five matches overall, including a 2-0 win over Teplice, with veteran striker Tomas Chory still leading their attack. The two clubs have never met before, so there is no head-to-head history to draw on. Our prediction: 1-2
