Germany prepare to welcome former coach Vogts

Germany entertain Berti Vogt's Azerbaijan in qualification Group A almost a year to the day since Joachim Löw's team defeated their opponents 4-0 in a 2010 FIFA World Cup qualifier. Germany and Azerbaijan met on the road to the 2010 FIFA World Cup and they will lock horns again in UEFA EURO 2012 qualifying Group A, with the latter keen to record a first point against their rivals.

Match background
• Germany's record in two games against Azerbaijan reads W2 D0 L0 (W1 D0 L0 at home).
• Joachim Löw's charges secured a 2-0 success in the teams' first encounter in Baku on 12 August last year, when Bastian Schweinsteiger and Miroslav Klose made the difference either side of the interval.
• Klose then plundered two more efforts in the return match in Hanover on 9 September the same year, sandwiching his strikes between a Michael Ballack penalty and a Lukas Podolski goal in a 4-0 triumph for Germany.Source http://www.uefa.com/
