Azerbaijan U21 vs England U21 preview
This should be a straightforward assignment for England.
Lee Carsley and his Under-21 squad head to Baku, Azerbaijan for their first encounter of 2024.
England U21 were last seen in action back in November when beating both Northern Ireland and Serbia 3-0 in their European Championship qualifiers.
Since then, a few fresh faces have been added to the 24-man squad.
Luton’s Teden Mengi and Chelsea’s Carney Chukwuemeka are involved for the first time having also been regulars for England’s younger age group teams.
Jarrad Branthwaite is now part of the senior set-up, but the likes of Harvey Elliott, Jamie Bynoe-Gittens, Noni Madueke and Rico Lewis should feature.
It’s been 12 years since England and Azerbaijan met with the visitors claiming four wins from five matches, with an aggregate score of 17-0.

Goals
There’s not a huge amount of value in the betting markets for what’s going to be a one-sided affair.
But England to win with a -3 match handicap looks a solid option at 11/8 with William Hill.
The Young Lions have some serious firepower in their ranks and have netted 21 goals in their last seven matches – including a 9-1 thumping of Serbia U21.

Halves
Given we think England will bag their fair share of goals, backing Lee Carsley’s side to win both halves seems only right.
Azerbaijan U21 have blanked in four of their last seven outings, while England have managed back-to-back clean sheets – winning both halves in each.
