Recent form

Slovakia

Slovakia's recent form shows a mix of results, with 3 wins, 1 draw, and 2 losses in their last 6 matches. They've been impressive defensively, keeping 3 clean sheets and conceding only 0.83 goals per game. Their attacking prowess is notable, scoring 1.5 goals per game on average. The standout performance was a 4-0 victory over Wales in a friendly, showcasing their potential for high-scoring games. Their European Championship campaign was a rollercoaster, starting with a surprising win against Belgium, followed by two losses and a draw. The team has shown resilience by bouncing back with wins in their two most recent matches, including a crucial UEFA Nations League victory against Estonia. With an even split between games going over and under 2.5 goals, Slovakia's matches tend to be unpredictable and potentially exciting for spectators.

Azerbaijan

Azerbaijan's recent form has been mixed, with 2 wins, 1 draw, and 3 losses in their last 6 matches. Their defensive record is a concern, conceding an average of 2.33 goals per game, with a particularly heavy 5-0 defeat against Belgium in the Euros Qualifiers. On the positive side, they've shown some attacking promise, scoring in 5 out of 6 games and averaging 1.17 goals per match. The team has been involved in high-scoring affairs, with 67% of their games seeing over 2.5 goals and both teams scoring. Their most recent victory, a 3-2 win against Kazakhstan in a friendly, showcases their potential for exciting matches. However, consistency remains an issue, as they've alternated between wins and losses in their last four games, failing to string together consecutive positive results.

Recent home/away form

Slovakia

Slovakia's recent home form shows a mix of impressive performances and some inconsistency. In their last six home games, they've managed three wins, one draw, and two losses, with a notable goal-scoring prowess, netting 14 times at an average of 2.33 goals per game. There's been a trend of high-scoring matches, with 67% of the games featuring over 2.5 goals and an impressive total goals average of 3.5 per match. The team has demonstrated their attacking strength in three particularly high-scoring games, each ending 4-0 or 4-2 in Slovakia's favor. However, their defensive record is somewhat mixed, keeping two clean sheets but also conceding in four out of the six matches. Despite the recent losses to Ukraine and Austria, Slovakia's overall home form remains positive, especially considering their goal-scoring capabilities.

Azerbaijan

Azerbaijan's recent away form has been challenging, with a notable struggle in defensive performances. They are currently on a three-game losing streak on the road, conceding a staggering 13 goals in their last three away matches. Their defensive vulnerabilities are highlighted by the high average of 3.4 goals conceded per game over their last five away fixtures. There have been several high-scoring encounters, particularly in their Euros Qualifiers matches against Belgium and Sweden, both ending in 5-0 defeats. Despite these difficulties, Azerbaijan did manage a clean sheet and a 2-0 victory against Estonia, their only win in this stretch. The team's games tend to be high-scoring affairs, with 80% of their recent away matches featuring over 2.5 goals. However, Azerbaijan's goal-scoring output remains low at just 0.8 goals per game, emphasizing their struggles on both ends of the pitch when playing away from home.
