Liechtenstein - Azerbaijan

Liechtenstein look to sharpen their attacking edge as they prepare to host Azerbaijan at Rheinpark Stadion on 13 November 2026 for this UEFA Nations League D Group 2 matchday 5 fixture. Having struggled to find the back of the net in recent outings, including a difficult home defeat to Lithuania, the hosts will rely on the experience of Benjamin Buechel in goal and the midfield presence of Marcel Buechel to disrupt their opponents. The expected XI for the home side signals a determined effort to hold firm against a visiting team that has shown greater defensive stability in the current campaign.

Azerbaijan arrive in good spirits following a productive run in the group, which includes a hard-fought victory over Lithuania. The two sides last met on 1 October 2026, where they played out a goalless draw that highlighted the tactical discipline both teams bring to this encounter. With Mahir Emreli expected to lead the line for the visitors, Azerbaijan will look to exploit any gaps in the Liechtenstein defence. As the group nears its conclusion, both sides understand the importance of securing points in this penultimate matchday.
