This is the final match in World Cup Qualifying Group D and France have already secured their place in the finals. They will finish top of the group and travel to bottom-placed Azerbaijan. Read our match prediction below.

France are five points clear at the top of this group with just this final game to come. They clinched qualification on Thursday evening with a convincing 4-0 home win over second-placed Ukraine.

The French side have won four of their five group games, the other being a 2-2 draw in Iceland. The reverse fixture against Azerbaijan was played in October 2024 with France winning the match 3-0.

Azerbaijan are playing France for the fourth time. Before the loss in this group, they had been beaten twice, including a 10-0 loss thirty years ago. They are yet to score a goal against France in international football.

It's been a disappointing World Cup campaign for Azerbaijan who have never reached the finals. Just one point has been earned from their five group fixtures. That was achieved in a 1-1 home draw with Ukraine in September 2024, needing a penalty to get the point.

Only two goals have been scored by them in this group, the other an own goal.

We tip France to win to nil.

Our Azerbaijan vs France Prediction

France will be without Kylian Mbappe for this game but that shouldn't affect the end result. France have won the group and will be playing in the finals in North America next summer. They beat Azerbaijan 3-0 in the reverse fixture and will expect another win here.

Azerbaijan are six points adrift at the bottom of this group. They have only scored two goals in their five group fixtures. One was a penalty, the other an own goal. Another dismal evenng awaits here. Our Azerbaijan v France prediction is France wins to nil.

Prediction :

 

France wins to nil
