Germany, who called up Lewis Holtby and Sebastian Rudy on Sunday as injury replacements, top Group A with 18 points from six games after their 2-1 win in Austria on Friday.
Belgium are second on 11 points from seven games and Turkey third on 10 from six. Azerbaijan are level on three points with last-placed Kazakhstan.
At the end of a long season and without midfield dynamos Bastian Schweinsteiger and Sami Kehdira, Germany coach Joachim Low is pushing for another win that would all but seal their qualification for next year's tournament in Poland and Ukraine.
"I am fully confident that my players will do their job well in Azerbaijan," Low told reporters. "We know we need to dig deep because we are at the end of a long season. It will not be, however, a walk in the park because even Turkey lost there."
Low's compatriot Vogts has problems of a different kind after he was attacked by three men at a news conference on Sunday following his team's 2-1 defeat to Kazakhstan on Friday.
"I would have long left if it was not for my friendship to the federation president," he said. "I have experienced many things but nothing like that. I do not have the words to describe this."
