Round 5 of the World Cup Qualification serves up an encounter between Azerbaijan and Iceland taking place at Neftci Arena on Thursday. Supporters will be hoping to see a similarly thrilling encounter, as it turned out to be the last time Azerbaijan played against Iceland. It finished 5-0 in a great match between the pair.
Iceland rank just one place ahead of Azerbaijan in the World Cup Qualification table currently, with the visitors on four points. That ranks them as number three, while their host sit with three points less as number four.
Azerbaijan are not a high scoring team these days, as they only found the back of the net six times in the last ten outings. That is an average of just 0.6 goals per game, as they conceded 26 goals. They managed zero clean sheets in these matches.

Azerbaijan vs Iceland Prediction
Azerbaijan Form
A single point is all Azerbaijan can show for their efforts in the past three matches. They managed a 1-1 draw with Ukraine, before getting trounced 3-0 against France while Ukraine won 2-1. Azerbaijan are without a win in their last six World Cup Qualification matches on home soil, which produced a record of one draws and five defeats, in which they conceded 14 and scored four goals.
Iceland Form
Iceland came away from their previous three games with just one draw, as they lost 2-1 against France. A 3-5 defeat against Ukraine followed, before a 2-2 draw with France. Iceland only have one paltry win to show from the last six away games in the World Cup Qualification. In these six matches they drew one and lost four as well as being outscored by 11 goals to six.
We don't expect Azerbaijan to pull off a surprise, and with goals flowing freely, they could be in for a hammering against strong looking Iceland.
