France vs Azerbaijan Prediction (10.10.2025)

France faced some difficulties in their last home match against Iceland, but as expected, they won 2:1 after a comeback. They now have a full set of points, having previously defeated Ukraine 2:0 away. An even easier victory is expected now against the group outsider. Due to injuries, Ousmane Dembélé, Bradley Barcola, Desira Due, Alex Cherki, and Tchouaméni have dropped out. However, there are still players to replace them, and Crystal Palace forward Jean-Philippe Mateta received his first call-up.

Azerbaijan has been performing quite poorly lately, despite some optimism with the appointment of an experienced specialist like Fernando Santos. However, his tenure was a failure, and after recently starting the qualifiers with a 0:5 loss away to Iceland, he was dismissed. Immediately, Aykhan Abbasov succeeded him and started with a respectable 1:1 draw at home against Ukraine. The fact remains that Azerbaijan has not won in 12 consecutive matches, which is unlikely to change now.

The question here is whether we will see a rout and whether France will put in a strong effort. Azerbaijan, however, has not been performing well lately and is struggling to even score a goal. I expect a victory for France by at least two goals.
