- St Lucia’s only official match against a UEFA team was a 1-1 home friendly draw with San Marino on 17 November 2022; they also beat the same opponents 1-0 three days later, though that fixture is not classified as an A match. These remain their only fixtures against non‑Concacaf opposition
Azerbaijan vs St Lucia prediction
Still without a permanent manager and so with caretaker boss Aykhan Abbasov at the helm, Azerbaijan went winless in the calendar year of 2025 with just two draws and six defeats in their eight matches.
Saint Lucia, under the management of former Trinidad and Tobago international striker Stern John, finished 2025 with hammerings at the hands of Cuba and Saint Vincent and the Grenadines to finish off their CONCACAF Series.
Saint Lucia will be hopeful of at least frustrating an out of form Azeri side but, especially with home advantage, the eastern Europeans should ease to victory in Sumgayit.
Azerbaijan vs Saint Lucia tip: Azerbaijan to win -1 handicap
