As part of the next match of the Arab Nations Cup, the football teams of Qatar and Iraq will clash. LiveResult.Ru gives a forecast for this game.
Qatar
The Qatar national team, matching the host of the future World Cup and the host of the Arab Nations Cup, performs great at the tournament, which means two wins in two opening meetings and a guaranteed entry into the playoffs of the tournament from the first place. The Qataris began their performances with a victorious meeting in the game with Bahrain (1-0), after which the team was able to extend its best form to the match with Oman, and also minimally outplayed the opponent (2:1). In the game with Iraq, the Qataris are also considered favorites of the meeting.
Iraq
The Iraqi national team has never won the tournament. However, this does not prevent her from being located in her group on the second line. It happened after the team had drawn 2 draws in the matches with Oman (1:1) and Bahrain (0:0). Such results brought the club two points. With such a result, it is difficult to hope for a way out of the group. In order to be in the playoffs, Iraq needs to win or draw, hoping that Oman and Bahrain will sign the world cup in a parallel match.
Statistics and figures:
- Qatar is the favorite of the meeting;
- Qataris have won 2 meetings in a row;
- The Iraqis have not won in the last 9 meetings;
- The last face-to-face meeting of the teams ended with a score of 2:1 in favor of Iraq.
Forecast
Most likely, the opponents will sign a draw in this match. Qatar will be satisfied with any result in the match, but the status of the team does not allow losing, but a draw in the third match will be a great feature summed up by the performances of the national team in the group stage.
