Azerbaijan vs Wales Betting Tips

Wales face Azerbaijan in Baku on Saturday night, as they look to move in the coveted top two in Group E. Will host, which is yet to win and no longer qualify, proved to be a thorn in the side of the visitors are desperate?

This campaign began badly for Azerbaijan and has very much continued in the same vein. host Saturday the seventh day came into the game without a win, while they are only drawn one of their six games.

Winning the game has proven to be outside Azerbaijan, but they had not struggled to score goals, scoring five of six. Even against the top teams, Azerbaijan have made their presence felt ahead, so they tend to be confident of doing well offensively on Saturday, especially because they are at home, where they've been in three out of three.

When the couple met in the reverse fixture, it was Wales who came out on top, but Azerbaijan no return number, as they lost by just one goal, which is on the balance of play, it might be a little harsh. In the case of a clear scoring chances, the hosts made just as much Welsh Saturday when the pair meet again in September.

Azerbaijan can no longer qualify for EURO 202 but Wales can. their chances of doing so has been reduced slightly, because they have drawn each of their last two. As things stand, the man Ryan Giggs' four points behind Hungary, which is in second place, although the Welsh have a game in hand. Basically, to win in this game will give them a very good chance of a top-two finish, but anything less and they are struggling.

In their last away match, Wales drew 1-1 with Slovakia. Overall, they're worth more, because they perform well, especially to the front, but in general, their efforts have not been great traveling. Wales without a win on the road in qualifying, while they have not scored more than one goal, so they must do what they have not done if they are to keep their challenge for the second qualifying spot.

In betting, 'Both Teams Score' makes plenty of appeal. Wales has scored in all but one of their six qualifiers, as has Azerbaijan. Add in the fact that both teams made light work of scoring a goal in the reverse fixture and plumping for a second to find the net on Saturday hard to get away from.

'Score true' supporters pointed towards a 1-1 draw. Wales have not scored more than one goal away from home, while Azerbaijan has scored exactly once in each of their three home matches in Group E. In addition, the pair created a number of very similar when they met in September, so that the side with the score at stands out as the best choice.
