North Macedonia vs Azerbaijan Prediction and Betting Tips | November 20, 2022

North Macedonia will host Azerbaijan at the Tose Proeski Arena in Skopje in a friendly on Sunday (November 20).

The Lions are coming off a 1-1 draw with Finland on Thursday. Enis Bardhi's 75th-minute penalty was cancelled out by Oliver Antman's opener for the visitors. Blagoja Milevski's side are now winless in their last four games, losing thrice.

The Balkan outfit were on the brink of a historic World Cup qualification in March after defeating Italy 1-0 in the UEFA playoffs semifinal. However, Portugal spoiled their party by inflicting a 2-0 loss in the final, denying them back-to-back major tournament appearances after they had made their debut at Euro 2020 last year.

Azerbaijan, meanwhile, saw their wait for a first appearance at the World Cup continue after failing to win a single qualifying game in Group A, collecting just one point in ten games. However, things seem to have improved lately for them, winning their last four games, including three in the UEFA Nations League.
