Azerbaijan vs Sweden Prediction – UEFA Nations League Picks 9/5/24

In this article, we will formulate an Azerbaijan vs Sweden Prediction for this Nations League game on Thursday, September 5th at Tofig Bahramov Republican Stadium. To formulate this prediction, we will examine:

-Azerbaijan’s recent form and recent player performance 

-Sweden’s recent form and recent play performance

-A summary that ties it all together and produces a favorable betting outcome for today’s game between Azerbaijan and Sweden. 

Azerbaijan Betting Preview

Azerbaijan has been inconsistent the last few games, but they are coming off a victory in the last game. On June 11th they faced off against Kazakhstan and they were able to secure the 3-2 victory. They actually fell behind 2-0 but they scored three goals after the 42nd minute and that was enough for the victory. Musa Gurbanly knows he has a chance to make a statement with some success in the next couple of games and all eyes are going to be on him. If he can be good here, Azerbaijan is going to be in great shape to find success. 

Sweden Betting Preview

Sweden can’t have a whole lot of confidence heading into this game as they have lost two games in a row. Two games ago against Denmark they lost 2-1 and in the last game against Serbia they were defeated 3-0. Sweden had 64 percent of the possession and nine shots on target, but it wasn’t enough. They couldn’t find the back of the net once. Emil Krafth was expected to play a big role for Sweden but he’s hurt and has had to withdraw from the team. Alexander Isak is expected to move into the starting lineup, and he’s going to need to be a difference maker. 

Azerbaijan vs Sweden Betting Prediction

Sweden looks to be the better team on paper, but are we really trusting them after they have struggled the last couple of games. Azerbaijan scored three goals in the last game and they are going to find offensive success here. Azerbaijan is going to find a way to get past the Sweden defense, and that will be the difference as the underdogs get the job done. Back Azerbaijan on the money line.
