Prediction: 1-1
United Arab Emirates
Iran will be looking to build on a hard-fought 1-0 win over Iraq when they take on United Arab Emirates at Azadi Stadium. Iran have already booked their place at the 2022 World Cup finals, but they surely want to give fans yet another reason for celebration. A man to watch in the home team will be Porto attacker Taremi, who scored the winner in the last group game, with all Sarlak, Kamyabinia, and Ansarifard pushing for a start.
United Arab Emirates, on the other hand, are eager to cement third position in Group A. Since both sides would be happy with one point from Tuesday’s qualifier, we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. Shabab Al-Ahli Dubai attacker Yahya Alghassani is widely expected to return to UAE’s starting XI after scoring as a substitute in a 2-0 win over Syria.
