Estonia vs Azerbaijan Prediction & Betting Tips - UEFA Nations League

In Group 1 of League C of the Nations League this Friday, Estonia will play hosts to Azerbaijan. This Match Day 3 outing finds the two nations occupying the bottom two slots. In case you are looking to bet on the event, we have a prediction to guide.

Estonia have the poorest goal difference in the group and as such find themselves bottom of the pool. In the opening two matches, they failed to score, while conceding four times in the process.

In their last outing, Estonia had Kevor Palumets sent off as they lost 3-0 away to Sweden. That marked the third time in five matches that Estonia failed to score.

It was also the second time in the same run that they conceded three or more.

The last time Azerbaijan visited Estonia was in the European Championship qualifiers, back in 2023. They won 2-0 for their second unbeaten outing against Estonia.

Heading into this game without a point so far, Azerbaijan will draw confidence from their recent head-to-head record. Quickfire first half goals away to Slovakia in the last game saw Azerbaijan suffer a 2-0 defeat.

That came after falling 3-1 at home to Sweden on Match Day 1, leaving them on zero points so far. The experienced Fernando Santos is clearly having a hard time at the team and largely due to a porous backline.

In each of their last four matches, Azerbaijan conceded at least twice. The visitors will, however, look at their scoring form for some solace. They only failed to score once in the last six matches.
