Azerbaijan vs Austria Betting Tips &— Austria to win to nil

Austria continues to hold the top spot in the race to qualify for next summer’s European Championships, despite suffering a 3-2 defeat at home against Belgium on Friday.

If the Austrians secure a victory in Baku, they will guarantee their spot in Germany, as they currently hold a seven-point lead over Sweden in Group F.

With a record of four victories and only one loss out of six qualification fixtures, Ralf Rangnick’s team has had a strong performance in 2023. Their confidence is high and they are optimistic about successfully completing the job on Monday.

During their travels, Austria has remained undefeated in their past three matches, securing crucial victories in Andorra and Sweden, alongside a draw against the probable group champions, Belgium.

Azerbaijan, who are no longer in the running for qualification, have only managed to accumulate four points in Group F. Their qualification campaign has resulted in just one victory against Estonia.

Azerbaijan has been unsuccessful in winning any of their last 11 matches in home qualifiers for either the Euros or World Cup. Their most recent qualifying victory in Baku was a 1-0 win against Norway in 2016.

In recent times, Giovanni De Biasi’s team has suffered defeat in five out of their last six home qualifiers, which includes a 1-0 loss against Belgium in September.

In the past, Austria has had a solid performance against Monday’s hosts, winning by three goals in each of their last three encounters. This includes a 4-1 victory in Vienna earlier this season.

In the end, although Azerbaijan seldom face heavy defeats on their home ground, Austria is expected to have the necessary strength to secure a victory. Therefore, I am supporting an away win by the Austrians and foresee them managing to keep a clean sheet at the Tofiq BÉ™hramov adına Respublika stadionu.
