The winners of that round advance to the Second Round, where the clubs from Azerbaijan Premier League (1st tier) join. For the quarterfinals and the semifinals, the round-robin system is used. For the finals, the format is restored to head-to-head. Participants All clubs from the Azerbaijan Premier League and First Division. History Soviet time Cup winners *1936: Stroit ...
