Duel between Iceland vs Azerbaijan is shaping to be one of those games where momentum goes out the window. Kicking off
Iceland’s been hot and cold, their displays swinging from brilliant to baffling. Meanwhile, Azerbaijan’s scrapping through a slump, their backline looking porous.
Checking past games, it’s a toss-up. Iceland’s taken the upper hand lately, but footy’s got a terrible memory.
For what it’s worth: Each outfits’ve got holes. Iceland’s center park’s off-rhythm, while Azerbaijan’s attack lacks a spark.
Across the World Cup UEFA Qualification, this fixture carries greater importance.

Recent form in the World Cup UEFA Qualification suggests neither side can afford mistakes, making this encounter even more intriguing.
Still, there’s something about this one—who knows, it’s the matchup where somebody steps up.
