Azerbaijan

Fernando Santos's side played a friendly against Haiti during this international break and suffered a heavy 0-3 defeat at home. Prior to this, Azerbaijan had not lost by more than two goals in 18 consecutive friendly matches. It's worth noting that the team also performed poorly in the Nations League, losing 5 out of 6 group matches and being relegated to the tournament's weakest division.

• The team has not lost in 7 of their last 9 home friendly matches (3 wins, 4 draws).
• Azerbaijan has not scored more than once in 5 of their last 7 home friendlies.
• They have conceded in 5 of their last 6 home friendly matches.

Belarus

Carlos Alos's side thrashed Tajikistan 5-0 away during this international break, scoring all five goals in the second half. Belarus not only secured their first win in six friendlies (1 draw, 4 losses) but also achieved their biggest victory since 2018. The team previously competed in the Nations League, maintaining their place in League C by finishing third in their group.

• The team has not lost in 4 of their last 5 away friendly matches (3 wins, 1 draw).

Azerbaijan vs. Belarus: Match Prediction

Azerbaijan rarely plays high-scoring friendlies even at home. In 7 of their last 11 home friendlies, the team has scored only one goal. Additionally, they failed to score in their recent match against Haiti. Defensively, Azerbaijan can be solid, having conceded more than one goal in only two of their last 16 home friendlies.

Belarus often prioritizes defensive solidity in their matches, including friendlies. In 6 of their last 8 away friendlies, they have scored at most one goal, and in four matches, they didn't score at all. At the same time, Belarus has been defensively strong, keeping clean sheets in 4 of their last 5 away friendlies. Considering all factors, I expect a low-scoring match. My prediction: Total under 2.5 goals
