Qarabag have a good chance to improve their Champions League qualification hopes. After five games of the league phase, they are 19th in the table and on Wednesday, host bottom-placed Ajax. Read our match prediction below.
After making their way through the qualifying rounds, Qarabag's good early season form continued when they won their first two league phase games. The following three have only produced a single point, though that was a creditable home draw against Chelsea. They currently reside in the unseeded play-off positions but are only a point behind the seeded places. The problem is they are only a point above the 25th place that would end their campaign.
Ajax are rooted to the bottom of the table. Each of their first five games in the league phase have ended in defeat with just one goal scored. They are yet to appoint a new coach after the previous one was sacked last month. Ajax are six points adrift of the unseeded play-off places.

Qarabag FK - Ajax: Form Analysis
With just one point from their last three league phase fixtures, Qarabag really need a home win over Ajax. They opened up with two victories over Benfica and Copenhagen and that took them into the automatic qualification positions
Their unbeaten league record ended away at Athletic Bilbao but they then drew 2-2 at home with Chelsea, trailing and leading in that game. Their most recent Champions League game saw them lose 2-0 at Napoli.
After this home game against Ajax, Qarabag host Eintracht Frankfurt before a final game away at Liverpool. They are top of the Azerbaijan Premier League and are unbeaten in their last ten home games with nine clean sheets.
Ajax are yet to score from open play in the league phase.
Ajax desperately need to win this match. No points, one goal (a penalty at Chelsea) and 16 conceded is their miserable record in this league phase. Last month saw them sack their coach and there has been some improvement in the Dutch Eredivisie.
They come into this match having won their last two league games and are fourth in their domestic league. However, they trail the leaders by 14 points. With Villarreal and Olympiacos (both in the bottom four) still to play in the league phase, they still have an outside chance of avoiding elimination.

Qarabag FK & Ajax Squad Analysis
We're at the stage now when some league games will feel like knockout cup ties. Qarabag started well in the league phase but their form has dipped in recent matches. With home advantage against the side in bottom position, this is a game they desperately need to win.
They are likely to employ a 4-2-3-1 formation for this home game. Jankovic and Bicalho will try to control the midfield for the home side. Up front, Qarabag will be relying on their Colombian striker Camilo Duran. Kady Borges is a doubt for them and may miss this game.
Ajax need to find a way to win this game.
Ajax have some selection problems too. Rayane Bounida is ill and Steven Berghuis is struggling with a groin injury. The Dutch club are just about at the point of no return. Not just because they haven't earned a point but they have an appalliing goal difference. They need to come away from Qarabag with a first win of the campaign but this is not the easiest of places to get an away victory.
A big problem for Ajax so far in this league phase has been the number of goals they have been conceding. Not scoring from open play hasn't been too helpful either though. Players such as Weghorst and Klaasen cannot be underestimated by Qarabag.
