The Azerbaijan national football team's opponents for the upcoming season of the UEFA Nations League have been determined following the official draw ceremony held in Brussels, Belgium.
According to the Operative Information Center-OMM, Azerbaijan has been placed in Group 2 of League D. The national team is set to compete against Lithuania and Liechtenstein in a bid to secure promotion to League C. The tournament is scheduled to commence on September 24, with the final group stage matches concluding in November. The final stage of the competition is slated for June 2027.
The UEFA Nations League, introduced in 2018, serves as a biennial international competition involving the member associations of UEFA. It was designed to replace international friendly matches with more competitive fixtures, providing teams with an alternative route to qualify for major tournaments like the UEFA European Championship. For Azerbaijan, the competition represents a significant opportunity to improve its international standing and gain experience against European counterparts in a structured league format.
