Australia vs Saudi Arabia Prediction & Betting tips
A striking match on Thursday is the one held by Australia and Saudi Arabia for a new date for the Asian qualifiers.
Australia :
In my opinion, the local box is a favorite because of the collective potential it has and especially because it has good players in different areas of the field. For this and the Saudis are making a great campaign in the competition, we advise you to play a few euros to the simple victory of the Australians. At stake is being able to get into the fight by classifying directly to the next World Cup in Russia.
Take into account that Australia has 13 points in the group, product of 3 wins and 4 equalities in total (11 goals in favor and 6 against). It comes from beating 2-0 to United Arab Emirates, cutting a streak of 4 equal in a row. He needs to win as much as possible so as not to lose track of his rival and the Japanese.
On the other hand do not forget that the local table has added acceptable results at home, after beating 2-0 to Iraq, equating 1-1 against Japan and beating 2-0 to Emirates as mentioned above. You’re expected to take a little more risk this time.
Saudi Arabia:
Continuing with the analysis, you should know that Saudi Arabia has 16 units in total, after winning 5 matches, equaling another and losing the remaining one (13 goals scored and 5 conceded on their fence). Thanks to what has been harvested so far, it is placed in the second position of the group, being able to sneak into the next World Cup.
To finish we tell you that the visit has recorded different results in this condition, after having surpassed Iraq 1-2, to lose 2-1 against the Japanese and to thrash 0-3 to Thailand. It is a set that can overcome inferior opponents in this condition, but that has more problems when it plays against selections of weight like the Japanese.
Against this backdrop I play for a victory of the local squad for the following reasons: First because Australia is a team with good players and is characterized by being relatively balanced between lines. Therefore, it is not surprising that the process is intense from the initial pitazo. Second because the Australian box needs to win the match as it is to reach his opponent in the table and not lose track of the Japanese. Its objective is to be able to repeat what has been done against Iraq and the United Arab Emirates. And third because Saudi Arabia, even though they have won 2 of 3 outs, lost 2-1 to the Japanese in Saitama. Given this reality, we believe that Australia can win even if it is a goal difference (1-0, 2-0 or 2-1 after the final whistle).
