Team Form

Qizilqum Zarafshon come into this match with mixed results: D, W, L, D, W in their last five outings. They drew 2–2 away to Uzbekistan U20 in a friendly, thrashed PFC Terdu 4–1 in the Cup, then lost 1–0 at Lokomotiv Farm Tashkent in the league. Back at home, they drew 0–0 with Xorazm FK Urganch and beat FK Kokand 1912 2–1. That’s two wins, two draws, and one defeat – a total of 8 goals scored and 5 conceded. At their own stadium, the last two league results were a goalless stalemate and a narrow victory, showing some defensive solidity.

Dinamo Samarqand travel with a form line of D, L, W, L, D. They drew 2–2 at Lokomotiv Farm Tashkent (Cup), lost 3–2 at home to Gazalkent (Cup), beat Mashal Muborak 3–1 at home, then fell 2–1 at Andijan and drew 2–2 at home with AGMK Olmaliq in the league. That’s one win, two draws, and two losses, with 10 goals for and 10 against. Away from home in the league, their most recent trip ended in a 2–1 defeat at Andijan, highlighting vulnerability on the road.

Head-to-Head Record

Over 14 previous meetings, Qizilqum Zarafshon hold the edge with 6 wins to Dinamo Samarqand’s 3, plus 5 draws. The last five encounters, however, have been more balanced: Qizilqum won 2–0 at home in October 2025, Dinamo won 3–2 at home in May 2025, Dinamo also won 2–1 away in November 2024, Dinamo beat Qizilqum 1–0 in the Cup in April 2023, and Qizilqum triumphed 4–1 at home in August 2022. So recent H2H slightly favours Dinamo (3 wins to 2), but Qizilqum’s overall dominance and home advantage in this fixture (two wins in the last three home H2Hs) cannot be ignored.

League Table Positions

Qizilqum Zarafshon sit 11th in the Super League with 13 points from 11 matches (4W, 1D, 6L), scoring only 8 goals and conceding 15. Dinamo Samarqand are not in the top 12, meaning they are even lower in the standings with fewer points. Both teams are in the bottom third, but Qizilqum have a slight edge in terms of points and league position. Home form for Qizilqum is not among the top eight, while Dinamo’s away record is also outside the top eight, suggesting neither side has a strong home/away advantage this season.

Win Probability: Qizilqum Zarafshon or Dinamo Samarqand?

After normalizing bookmaker odds and adjusting for recent form, head-to-head record, and league positions, we calculate the following win probabilities: Qizilqum Zarafshon 35%, Draw 42%, Dinamo Samarqand 23%. The draw is the most probable outcome. The odds imply a draw chance above 40%, and both teams’ inconsistent form and a history of stalemates (5 draws in 14 H2H matches) support that. Qizilqum’s home advantage and higher league standing push their win probability slightly above Dinamo’s, but neither team is a strong favourite to take all three points.

Odds & Match Prediction

Bookmakers have priced this match tightly. The best odds available are around 2.62–2.80 for a Qizilqum Zarafshon win, 2.00–2.10 for the draw, and 3.40–4.33 for a Dinamo Samarqand victory. The low draw odds confirm that the market expects a close, low-scoring game. Based on the stats, the most likely result is a draw, but if there is a winner, Qizilqum Zarafshon have the better chance. A 1–1 or 0–0 scoreline would fit the data patterns.
