Preview
Serbia looks to create a lead at the top of Group A when they face struggling side, Azerbaijan in the World Cup Qualifiers.
They picked up a 1-0 away win against Luxembourg in their last match and look to continue the good form.
Vlahovic’s second half effort ensured a jump to the top of the table with 14 points from 6 matches.
On the other hand, Azerbaijan was beaten 3-0 at home by Ireland in their last match and now lost 5 matches out of 6 in the qualification campaign.
Robinson scored twice while Ogbene completed the formalities with a late strike to push the hosts into further misery.
With just a point from 6 matches, Azerbaijan would want this campaign to finish off as quickly as possible.
The last time both Serbia and Azerbaijan met was in March during the World Cup Qualifiers where the Serbians won 2-1.
