Home advantage looks to give Azerbaijan a chance of getting off the mark in Euro 2020 Qualifying Group E, but we are backing Hungary to reverse their poor away form and build on their excellent victory over Croatia.
Both of these teams are more effective on home soil (see stats above) and that is particularly true in Hungary’s case, for their fourth straight victory in Budapest came 2-1 at the expense of the World Cup runners-up in March.
That meant four of the five teams in this pool all have three points going into the end-of-season fixtures, the exception being Azerbaijan who lost their only qualifier so far 2-1 away to Croatia after taking a shock lead.
There does appear to be some improvement from Azerbaijan, whose club teams have generally fared better on the continent than their national side as they can afford to sign useful players from abroad, although reaching a major tournament still seems some way off.
Interestingly, this match is not being played at Baku’s Olympic Stadium which recently staged the Europa League Final but instead, along with Tuesday’s game against Slovakia, the much smaller Bakcell Arena which has a capacity of just 11,000.
Azerbaijan will be hoping that plays into their hands, but Hungary ought to have been boosted by beating Croatia and we will back them to maintain their 100% head-to-head record against these opponents.
