Azerbaijan Aims for First UNL Win Against Struggling Liechtenstein
1 Oct
Summary
- Azerbaijan seeks first UNL victory since September 2022.
- Liechtenstein has lost 17 of their last 18 matches.
- The last meeting between these teams was in February 2013.
Azerbaijan will host Liechtenstein in a UEFA Nations League clash on Thursday. The Azerbaijani team comes into the match following a 1-1 draw with Lithuania in their recent UNL fixture. Liechtenstein, on the other hand, suffered a 2-0 defeat against Malta, compounded by a missed penalty earlier in the game. They also lost their opening Nations League match to Lithuania.
Liechtenstein's recent form is particularly concerning, with the team having lost 17 of their last 18 games and struggling significantly in away competitive matches since September 2020. Azerbaijan, while not in dominant form, has a better head-to-head record against Liechtenstein and will be looking to capitalize on their opponent's struggles to secure a much-needed victory and potentially a clean sheet. This marks their first encounter since a friendly in February 2013.
