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

Austria, even after a disappointing 3:2 home loss against Belgium on Friday, still holds the leading position to secure a spot in the upcoming European Championships next summer.

With a comfortable seven-point lead over Sweden in Group F, the Austrians are aware that a victory in Baku will guarantee their place in Germany.

In 2023, Ralf Rangnick’s team has had a strong performance, winning four out of six qualification fixtures and only losing one. With this impressive record, they will approach Monday’s match with confidence, believing they can complete the job.

During their recent travels, Austria has remained undefeated in their past three matches. They managed to secure crucial victories in Andorra and Sweden, and also achieved a draw against the expected group champions, Belgium.

Azerbaijan, the host country, is no longer in the running for qualification. They have only managed to secure four points in Group F, with a single victory against Estonia being the highlight of their qualification campaign.

Azerbaijan has not been successful in winning any of their last 11 home qualifier matches for either the Euros or World Cup. Their last 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 notably includes a 1:0 loss against Belgium in September.

In the past, Austria has consistently performed well against the hosts of Monday’s game. In their previous three encounters, Austria achieved a three-goal victory in each match, including a 4-1 win in Vienna earlier this season.

In the end, despite Azerbaijan’s rare defeats at home, Austria is expected to have the necessary strength to secure a victory. Therefore, I am supporting an away win for the Austrian team, who are also likely to maintain a clean sheet at the Tofiq BÉ™hramov adına Respublika stadionu.
