Our prediction for the match Estonia vs Azerbaijan
“The Blueshirts” remain one of the worst teams in Europe (it is remarkable that they once played the play-offs for entry into the championship. Last year, the team confirmed its weak shape, finishing the qualification with 1 point in 8 qualifying matches. Also, there was the “Nations League path”, but everything ended with a 1-5 failure in the confrontation with the neighbours, the Poles, in March. And the generally successful Baltic Cup (they defeated the Faroe Islands and beat Lithuania on penalties) was the only success in recent years. “The Land of Fire” played in the same Euro qualification group, created more problems for their opponents, but ultimately finished penultimate.
As for the new Nations League, the teams did not surprise with anything special. Thomas Heberli’s wards lost with a 0-1 score to Slovakia at the home arena, and were routed in Sweden. “The Caucasians”, who have been led since June by another high-status European, Fernando Santos, lost by 2 goals to “the Scandinavians”: there happened a 1-3 misfire at the home arena and a 0-2 result in Kosice.
“The Balts” have seen their main veterans, Klavan and Vassiljev, retire this year. Moreover, Lepik is injured. The guests have also decided to do without such previously important players as Emreli and Kryvotsiuk.
