China VS Vietnam

Kick Off: 10/07/2021 13:00

 

China

For China, this is a game with little retreat. After all, it will be about the team's prospect of qualifying. Looking back on the first two rounds, they not only didn't get a point, but also didn't even score a goal. In this world preliminaries, Chinese football team has used naturalized players, but failed to make a qualitative change. Therefore, in the next two rounds, if they can't get enough points from Vietnam and Saudi Arabia, the dream of the Chinese team to enter the world cup will fail in advance.

Vietnam

Although Vietnam currently ranks only more than 90 in the world, due to their rapid growth in recent years, they still have great potential. Looking back on the first two rounds, although they lost both games, their defense is good, which gave Saudi Arabia and Australia some problems.

Prediction

In terms of strength, there is still a gap between the two sides. However, as mentioned above, the strength of the Vietnamese team has been greatly enhanced. At the same time, it depends on how Li Tie uses the naturalized players and how the naturalized players are. Coupled with the advantages of historical achievements, China is expected to win.

 

 

Pick: China to win

Final Result: 2-0、2-1

Saudi Arabia VS Japan

Kick Off: 10/07/2021 13:00

 

Saudi Arabia

Saudi Arabia took 6 points in the first two rounds of the top 12, ranking 2nd in the group. Saudi Arabia's two world qualifiers in October were home games. Their lineup includes captain Al-Faraj, Ateef, Blake and so on, who will be absent due to injury.

Japan

Japan recruited as many as 20 players to play in the European League in the list of world qualifiers in October, of which KUBO Takefusa was absent. Japan's top 12 matches in October will face Saudi Arabia and Australia respectively. Japan won China and lost Oman in the first two rounds, taking only 3 points. The coach Hajime Moriyasu is under great pressure.

Prediction

There were obvious problems with the state of the Japanese team in the first two rounds. Their coach urgently needed to solve the offense. Saudi Arabia has the opportunity to grab points at home.

 

Pick: Saudi Arabia to be unbeaten

Total: Over 2 goals

 Japan vs Australia

Kick Off: 10/12/2021 06:15

 

Japan 

Surprising losers to Oman in the opening match of round three, Japan bounced back with a slender 1-0 victory over China. Japan come into the game on the back of a harrowing 1-0 defeat away to Saudi Arabia in the first match of this current international break. This defeat left them in third place in Group B and put them in danger of missing out on automatic qualification for Qatar 2022.

Australia 

Nine trips to the East Asian nation have all ended without a victory for Australia, who will be confident this is the time to triumph, whilst inflicting more World Cup Qualifying pain on their pan-Asian-Oceanic rivals in the process. On last time out, Australia secured a routine 3-1 victory over Oman on home turf. 

Prediction

It’s believed that Japan will go all out for victory and this could leave them susceptible at the back. However, both sides have enough quality to find the back of the net. Given thr host’s poor start to the qualifiers, expect Australia will not be unbeaten.

 

1X2 Pick: X2
