  • Competition: EURO U21 qualifications
  • Date: Friday, 22nd March 2024
  • Kickoff: 12:00 UTC / 13:00 CET
  • Venue: Azersun Arena (Baku)

There are some signs of improvement in the Azerbaijan football, but their U21 team is still one of the weakest in Europe. In this qualification group, they are fighting for the fourth position with two more teams. Of course, the fourth position will not give them a place at the European championship, but that would be a good sign of improvement. Azerbaijan U21, so far in the qualifications, have three points from four matches. In the previous game, they lost 1-0 against Ukraine U21. Azerbaijan U21 had only 32% ball possession and six shots on the goal, so it is no wonder they suffered another defeat. 

England U21 won three U21 titles so far. The last trophy came last year in Georgia, when England U21 won against Spain. So far in the current qualifications, Lee Carsley's team have 12 points from five matches. In the previous game, they won 3-0 at home against Northern Ireland U21. The home side dominated in that match from the start, so they didn't have any problems securing another easy win. 

Azerbaijan U21 vs England U21 pick: Under 3.5 goals

Azerbaijan U21's goal difference in four matches is 3:6, so obviously their matches are usually low-scoring. On the other hand, England U21 have a tremendous defense as they allowed only four goals in five matches. Under 3.5 goals should be the most suitable bet for this tie.

Azerbaijan U21 team news

Most of Azerbaijan U21 is playing in the national championship. Maybe the biggest talent in the squad is 19-year-old Nariman Akhundzada from Qarabag. Although his club had a solid run in the Europa League too, Akhundzada played mostly in the national championship, where he scored seven goals in 21 appearances. He is a solid young winger, but Akhundzada will have a hard task on Friday against England U21.
