Ukraine will look to keep hold of their play-off spot from Group D of the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualification UEFA section when they play Azerbaijan on Monday at the neutral venue in Krakow, Poland. This match between the second-placed ‘Blue and Yellow’ and the fourth-placed ‘The National Team’ comes with our prediction of over 3.5 goals.
With four points ahead of this round (W1, D1, L1), Ukraine are five points behind leaders France and one point ahead of Iceland. Azerbaijan have just one point in this campaign (D1, L2), which came in the reverse fixture. The group leaders qualify directly for the World Cup, while the second-placed team advances to the play-offs.
Ukraine defeated Iceland 5-3 away from home in a high-scoring thriller in their last game to keep their qualification hopes alive. This was preceded by a 1-1 away draw against Ukraine in the reverse fixture, and they will hope to continue the momentum and stay in the top two spots.
Azerbaijan lost 3-0 away at France in their latest match, making it two defeats and a draw in this campaign. The draw was sandwiched between their losses, as Azerbaijan had a heavy 5-0 defeat on matchday one against Iceland. With ten defeats in their last 13 matches, their recent record isn’t convincing enough to back them for a win.

Our Ukraine vs Azerbaijan Prediction
This match could be Ukraine’s chance to stay in the second spot of the group, as France seems to be running away with the top place. Playing the group laggards, Azerbaijan should boost their chances, as the visitors have scored just once in this qualification campaign. Ukraine have scored five goals in their latest match against Iceland and will look to continue that scoring form.
This match could see some scoring action from the designated hosts, and our Ukraine vs Azerbaijan prediction is over 3.5.
