Model notes
DeepSeek V4 Pro
Qarabag's 6-0 aggregate demolition of Vestri (clean sheets home and away) and vastly superior European pedigree (UCL group-stage experience, 42.75 coefficient vs 6.50) make them heavy favourites at the Baku Olympic Stadium. CSKA Sofia conceded three goals across two legs to Derry City and are returning to European competition after a two-year absence, so a controlled home win with a clean sheet is the likeliest outcome.
Gemini 3.1 Pro
Qarabag boasts extensive European qualifying experience and a formidable home advantage in Baku. CSKA Sofia has shown vulnerabilities on the road, making a controlled home victory the most likely outcome.
Gemini 3.5 Flash
Qarabag's extensive European experience and strong home record in Baku make them favorites, especially with CSKA Sofia missing away support due to a fan ban. While the Bulgarian side has goalscoring threat in Ioannis Pittas, their defensive vulnerabilities shown against Derry City should allow Qarabag to secure a first-leg advantage.
Gemini 3.6 Flash
Qarabağ possess superior European pedigree and an exceptional home record in Baku, where their high pressing and tactical consistency usually dominate qualifying ties. CSKA Sofia historically struggle on the road in continental fixtures, giving the Azerbaijani hosts a clear advantage in this first leg.
Gemma 4 31B
Qarabag enters as favorites due to their strong home record in Europe and dominant form in the previous qualifying round. CSKA Sofia's vulnerability on the road and Qarabag's tactical efficiency make a home win the most likely outcome.
MiniMax M3
Qarabag's strong Baku home record, comfortable prior qualifying win over IF Vestri, and CSKA Sofia's documented road vulnerability favor the hosts in this first leg, but the first-leg context and cautious tactical setups keep the draw probability meaningful.
Mistral Large 3
Qarabag's strong home form, tactical discipline, and effective pressing in European competitions give them an edge, but CSKA Sofia's attacking potential and vulnerability on the road make a draw a credible outcome. The most likely scoreline reflects Qarabag's slight advantage.
Kimi K2.6
Qarabag’s dominant home form in European qualifying and their high-pressing, chance-creating style give them the edge over a CSKA Sofia side that has shown vulnerability on the road, making a narrow home victory the most likely outcome.
Kimi K3
Qarabag are seasoned European campaigners with a strong home record in Baku and cruised past IF Vestri in the previous qualifying round, while CSKA Sofia — though capable of scoring — have shown vulnerability on the road; with no recent H2H to suggest otherwise, the hosts' tactical cohesion under Qurbanov makes them clear favourites, with a draw the main alternative if CSKA sit deep and frustrate.
Nemotron 3 Ultra
Qarabag's strong home record in European competition and comfortable qualifying wins over IF Vestri contrast with CSKA Sofia's documented away vulnerability, though the first-leg context keeps the draw probability substantial.
GPT-5.6 Sol
Qarabag's strong home environment, European qualifying experience, and effective pressing give them a clear edge. CSKA Sofia can threaten but their reported away vulnerability makes a narrow home win most likely.
Qwen3.7 Plus
Qarabag's formidable home record in Baku and their comfortable progression past IF Vestri give them a clear edge, while CSKA Sofia's documented away vulnerability in Europe makes an upset unlikely. Qarabag's high pressing and chance creation should control the first leg, though CSKA's defensive setup may keep it tighter than a blowout.
Grok 4.5
Qarabag's superior European pedigree, dominant 6-0 aggregate over Vestri, and strong home control make them clear favorites in the first leg, while CSKA's open, high-scoring style (5-3 vs Derry) suggests they can score but remain vulnerable away.
MiMo v2.5-Pro
Qarabag are a seasoned European side with a strong home record at the Baku Olympic Stadium, having already cruised past IF Vestri in the previous round and continuing to press and control matches effectively. CSKA Sofia carry goal threat but have shown defensive vulnerability on the road, making a home win the most likely outcome in this first leg.
GLM-5.2
Qarabag's extensive European experience, strong home record in Baku, and comfortable prior qualifying-round wins give them a clear edge over a CSKA Sofia side that has shown defensive vulnerability on the road, though the Bulgarian visitors are capable of scoring in what should be an open first leg.
