The Czechs will of the calendar in the first two rounds of meetings with
the teams participating in the European Championship in France. Czech
team played in these meetings failed, gaining only one point, selling
the world 0: 0 Northern Ireland and Germany lost 0: 3. As a result of
meeting with Azerbaijan is practically decisive for the Czechs, the
first place in the group course will be for the Germans, but for the
second must be fought, and the gap between it already accounts for 5
points. In 2016 the Czech team played 11 games, could win only three
more three matches played in a draw and lost 5 matches, showing the
decline in the game the team related to the rejuvenation of staff and
maintenance of long-term leaders, Petr Cech and Tomas Rosicky.

Azerbaijanis have won two minimum winning 1: 0 at the start of the
selection of San Marino and Norway, and is now in second place in the
group, but most likely it’s a temporary phenomenon.

the side of this projection. Rate: TM3.

Czech Republic vs Azerbaijan: Prediction
Czech Republic had two tough fixtures to start their World Cup qualification campaign. After earning 1 point from the two matches, now they must start to pick up wins. Azerbaijan is a team on confidence, but they do not have the quality of match winners like their opposition. At the same time, they have shown that they can frustrate their opponents with their rigid defensive approach. Against Norway, they gave away just three shots on goals and all of those came from corners.
Without a doubt, the Czech Republic side will be looking for all three points here. They have the home advantage and expect them to go on the attack from the kick-off.
