Qarabag have lost five of their six previous meetings with German sides in all European competition, drawing the other most recently 1-1 with SC Freiburg in last season’s UEFA Europa League group stage.
Bayer Leverkusen have won both of their UEFA Europa League games this season, and are looking to win their first three group stage games in a campaign in the competition for the first time. They last time they won their first three group games in any competition was the 2001-02 UEFA Champions League, when they ended up reaching the final.
FK Qarabag are one of three sides yet to concede a goal in this season’s UEFA Europa League, with the Azerbaijani side facing fewer shots on target than anyone else so far (3).
