Stadium
Bank Respublika Arena
Baku (Masazir), Azerbaijan
Formerly: Alinja Arena, Masazir Arena
Built for Alinjaspor, the club that later renamed itself Sabah, the ground opened as the Əlincə Arena, took the Bank Respublika name once the lender signed on in 2019, and is due to revert to Masazır Arena once that agreement expires.
The highest attendance on file, 10,000, came for a goalless derby against Qarabağ in November 2022. The Azerbaijan Cup final of 2020/21 was held here, with Keshla beating Sumgayit 2:1. Sabah have since used the ground for Champions League qualifying ties, hosting Hapoel Beer Sheva of Israel and Denmark's AGF.
Away from matchdays, the club keeps a small shelter on the grounds for stray dogs, cared for by Sabah's own vet.
