Azerbaijan and Ireland face-off in a Group A clash in the FIFA World Cup 2022 European qualifiers, hoping for their respective first three points. The hosts are bottom of the group with just a single point on board from five fixtures while the visitors have two points from their five outings so far. Azerbaijan are already out of contention for qualification for the World Cup and will just play for pride and FIFA points. The hosts have lost every single one of their game in the campaign except for the one against Ireland. The two sides played out a 1-1 draw when Ireland was the home side. Azerbaijan’s defeats have come twice to Portugal and once each to Serbia and Luxembourg. Gianni De Biasi’s men have had problems on the defensive front, failing to keep a clean sheet in their last nine matches across all competitions. Six out of Azerbaijan’s last eight games have had over 2.5 goals as well.
Ireland are just one point ahead of Azerbaijan and can only make it to the World Cup through the playoffs in the second round. Anything less than a win against Azerbaijan will end Ireland’s quest for their first World Cup qualification since 2002. They come into the game with a 1-1 draw with Serbia. Ireland also have had defensive problems, keeping just a single clean sheet in their last eight fixtures. However, they have been scoring regularly but lack the conviction to get the three points. Ireland have lost to Serbia, Luxembourg and Portugal. Their only two draws were against Azerbaijan and Serbia, in the reverse fixture.
