Azerbaijan vs Ukraine prediction
Victor Palsson, Albert Gudmundsson and Kristian Hlynsson notched for Iceland, as well as an Isak Bergmann Johannesson brace, as they dispatched of Azerbaijan by five goals to nil in Reykjavik. In the aftermath of that clash, former Portugal boss Fernando Santos then came under immense pressure from the Azeri press, but he remains in place.
Ukraine come into this one on the back of a 2-0 loss to France in their nominal home ground at the neutral venue of Wroclaw in Poland, due to goals in either half from Michael Olise and Kylian Mbappe. The Ukrainians have now suffered three defeats in their last four matches since beating Belgium in March.
Azerbaijan are a very poor side and they lack much quality, and Ukraine should come out on top in the Azeri capital city this week, even with their recent average form.
