The chances for Indonesia to advance to the World Cup practically disappeared days ago. Nevertheless, the team is obliged to make one more effort against Iraq.
The match will be played in Saudi Arabia
The meeting is on neutral ground, as all matches in this group are played in this country. However, the Iraqis remain favorites. Indonesia had a very tough match three days ago against Saudi Arabia, so that may weigh in as well. Overall, the format of these playoffs is not very well thought out, but what do I know. In any case, Iraq is the more qualified team, and it seems to me that they will find a way to win to enter a decisive clash with the Saudis for their debut at the World Cup finals.
Bet on Iraq to win
I think the symbolic hosts will prove their greater class, while the brave Indonesians will try again in a few years.
