Recent form

Azerbaijan

Azerbaijan's recent form shows a mix of impressive results and challenging encounters. They've managed to secure 3 wins in their last 6 games, including a notable 3-0 victory over Sweden in the Euros Qualifiers and a narrow 3-2 win against Kazakhstan in a friendly. However, their defensive record is a concern, conceding 11 goals in 6 matches, with a particularly heavy 5-0 defeat to Belgium. The team's games tend to be high-scoring affairs, with 67% of their matches seeing over 2.5 goals and an average of 3.33 total goals per game. Despite the inconsistency, Azerbaijan has shown the ability to score, netting 9 goals in 6 games, but their negative goal difference (-2) suggests they're struggling to balance attack and defense effectively.

Sweden

Sweden's recent form has been inconsistent, with their last six games showing an even split of three wins and three losses. The team is currently experiencing a two-game losing streak, having suffered defeats against Serbia (0-3) and Denmark (1-2) in their most recent international friendlies. A notable high-scoring game occurred in their match against Portugal, where they conceded five goals in a 5-2 loss. Despite this defensive lapse, Sweden has managed two clean sheets in their last six games, both against Estonia. The team's goal-scoring has been somewhat erratic, averaging 1.33 goals per game while conceding 1.83. Interestingly, 67% of their recent matches have seen over 2.5 goals, indicating a tendency towards more open, high-scoring affairs.

Recent home/away form

Azerbaijan

Azerbaijan's recent home form has been impressive, with a notable run of three consecutive wins in their last three matches. They've won four out of their last six home games, demonstrating strong performance on their own turf. The team has been particularly prolific in front of goal, scoring 10 times in these six matches, averaging 1.67 goals per game. Defensively, they've been solid too, conceding just 0.83 goals per game and keeping two clean sheets. A standout result was their 3-0 victory over Sweden in the Euros Qualifiers, which was both a high-scoring game and a significant upset against a stronger opponent. Their most recent match, a 3-2 win against Kazakhstan, was another high-scoring affair, contributing to the fact that half of their last six home games have seen over 2.5 goals.

Sweden

Sweden's recent away form has been concerning, with a notable run of three consecutive losses in their last three matches. Their defensive record has been particularly worrying, conceding 10 goals in these three games, including a heavy 5-2 defeat to Portugal. On a positive note, Sweden managed an impressive 5-0 victory against Estonia, demonstrating their potential for high-scoring performances. However, this win stands out as an anomaly in their recent away form, which has otherwise been characterized by struggles. With only one win and one draw in their last six away games, Sweden has struggled to find consistency on the road, conceding an average of 2.17 goals per game while scoring 1.5. The high total goals average of 3.67 per game suggests that Sweden's away matches tend to be eventful, with 67% of these games featuring over 2.5 goals.
