In this Premier League match on 15th September 2023, Zira FK claimed a narrow home victory against Sumqayit FK with a singular goal determining the outcome.

While the home team, Zira FK, commanded the majority share of both on-target and off-target shots, they only managed to direct 25% of their attempts on target. This clearly demonstrates their determined attempts to break through Sumqayit FK's defence. However, it also indicates a need for the team to improve their shooting accuracy.

Sumqayit FK had a poor offensive display. With only 1 shot on target and 2 shots off target, they struggled to create opportunities. This inadequacy in the attacking front was arguably the major factor that led to their crushing defeat.

The away team's goalkeeper, despite the loss, managed 2 crucial saves, indicating an impressive defensive display in the face of Zira FK's constant pressure. On the other hand, Zira FK's goalkeeper had an easier day with only one save to make and successfully maintaining the clean sheet.

Sumqayit FK committed double the number of fouls than Zira FK. This shows a higher level of aggressive play from Sumqayit FK, something which might have influenced the referee's decisions during the match.

In terms of set-piece play, Zira FK exploited their corner kicks advantage, executing 4 against Sumqayit FK's 2. This could indicate a more tactical approach in their game play and further solidifies their offensive dominance in the field.

Interestingly, Zira FK used fewer substitutions (2) compared to Sumqayit FK's 3. This could reflect the manager’s confidence in the original line up or indicate a conservative game strategy.

In conclusion, despite scoring only one goal, Zira FK displayed a commendable dominating performance with more aggressive attacking and fewer fouls committed. Overcoming their shooting accuracy issues could potentially lead the home team to win future games with an even greater margin. On the other hand, Sumqayit FK needs to focus on strengthening their attacking front and minimizing unnecessary fouls.
