Iran continue confidently in the World Cup qualifiers, after their last match ended with a 2-0 victory over the UAE. The team is on a streak of seven consecutive wins in the qualifiers and looks like the main favorite for the top spot in the group. Iran have a solid defense, having conceded only three goals in their last ten matches. Additionally, offensively the team is effective and regularly creates goal-scoring opportunities.
Uzbekistan with inconsistent performanceUzbekistan achieved a narrow 1-0 victory over Kyrgyzstan in their last match, but their performance in the qualifiers remains unstable. The team has three wins in their last six matches, failing to score in two of those games. Uzbekistan rely on compact defense, but struggle against higher-ranked teams. Furthermore, they have lost their last two away games against Iran.
Bet on Iran to winIran demonstrate stability and class in both phases of the game, while Uzbekistan often face difficulties against the top teams in Asia. I expect the hosts to dominate and secure another victory.
