Qatar
2023 Gold Cup special guests Qatar kick off their campaign with a match against Haiti at NRG Stadium. Qatar failed to impress at the 2022 World Cup finals, with the team losing each of their three group games and, no doubt, they are eager to make amends for the unsuccessful campaign. As always, a man to watch in Carlos Queiroz’s team will be Ali Almoez, who has netted 42 goals in 88 appearances for the national team to date.
Les Bicolores, on the other hand, impressed in the CONCACAF Nations League B, with the team recording five consecutive wins. Considering that Haiti were scoring goals for fun in the Nations League, we believe that punters from all around the world can find value in betting on both teams to score. The opposition back-line should have Maccabi Haifa striker Frantzdy Pierrot at bay.
Highlighted Team (Qatar):
Qatar national team played their first official international game on March 27, 1970, with the team losing to Bahrain (1-2) on the road. The Maroons suffered their biggest defeat to Kuwait in January, 1973 and 42 years later they recorded their biggest win against Bhutan (15-0). Qatar did remarkably well to win the 2019 Asian Cup, with the team beating Japan 3-1 in the title game. The same year the Maroons received a wild card for the Copa America.
Qatar were elected to host the 2022 FIFA World Cup as well. The Asian side are well known for their dark red shirts, whereas their away kit is white. Qatar are affiliated to both AFC (Asia) and WAFF (West Asia) confederations. Sebastian Soria is the most capped Qatar footballer and it has to be noted that he is still the team’s top scorer. The Maroons play their home games at various stadiums, but they are likely to play their 2022 World Cup opener at Lusail Iconic Stadium which can hold up to 80,000 spectators.
