The 33rd round of the Misli Premier League match between Sumgayit and Qarabag (3:4) marked the 500th goal of the season.

Rustam Ahmadzade scored the jubilee goal. It was the 195th match of the championship.

For the first time in 21 years, the 500th goal of a season in the top division was scored. The last time this happened was in the 2004/2005 season. That season saw 684 goals. The record for the most goals in a single season is 1,177, set in 1992.

Zira also scored their 400th goal in the Premier League. Junior Martins netted the milestone, making Zira the 10th club to score 400 or more goals in the top division. The club's first league goal was scored by Victor Igbekoyi in 2015.

Araz-Nakhchivan, who defeated Zira 3-2 in the last round, won their 30th home victory in the Premier League. The Nakhchivan representative achieved this in their 74th home match (20 draws, 24 losses). Their first home win was a technical victory in the 2000/2001 season.
