THE PREDICTION

Azerbaijan face a daunting encounter here as they take on reigning European and UEFA Nations League champions Portugal. The last three competitive matches involving Azerbaijan took place in the UEFA Nations League and each finished 0-0. Portugal however, provide a different level of opponent faced by Azerbaijan than in any of those other three games. Fernando Santos has plenty of riches within his squad to choose from, particularly from an offensive perspective. The Portuguese attack is one that will send shivers down many an opponent’s spine having racked up 13 goals in their last four international fixtures. The goal glut is likely to continue for Portugal, with Santos’ men expected to comfortably beat a vastly inferior Azerbaijan team by at least two clear goals in this contest.
