Azerbaijan v Iceland : World Cup Qualifying Europe match betting preview, prediction and odds

Thu 13th Nov, 17:00 BST, Türk Hava Yolları Futbol Mərkəzi IV meydança, Bakı

Iceland, led by manager Arnar Gunnlaugsson, visit Fernando Santos and his Azerbaijan side at the Bakcell Arena (Bakı (Baku)) on Thursday evening in the World Cup Qualifying Europe. All of the important stats for the tie, including head to heads (H2Hs), predictions and odds from the UK's biggest bookmakers across 17 of the biggest betting markets are covered in this betting preview. It's all here with the aim of helping you make the most well-informed bet possible.

Best Tip: Iceland to win

The turnout should be good at Bakcell Arena (Bakı (Baku)) on Thursday evening but, unfortunately, we predict most of those in attendance will be coming away disappointed. The stats below, including head-to-head (H2H) records and recent form, all point towards an away win in the win / draw / win market, with visitors Iceland getting the better of hosts Azerbaijan. It could be a bruising afternoon for home manager Fernando Manuel Fernandes da Costa Santos but, in the meantime, we'd strongly recommend making the most of best bookie odds of 1.57 to back the away win.

Goal Statistics

Azerbaijan's fans will be hoping for goals on Thursday evening, not least because Iceland have conceded in each of their last 14 World Cup Qualifying Europe outings. A PG of 1.5 for Fernando Santos's side suggests that run should continue.

Azerbaijan's defensive record is very strong, Fernando Santos's men having conceded 1 or less in 5 consecutive World Cup Qualifying Europe outings. An underwhelming PG rating of 1.4 for Iceland makes sense in this context.
