Iraq vs Japan Prediction & Betting tips
Iraq :
As in the Asian elimination zone for the World Cup in Russia also happens a lot. On three rounds before the end of the qualification to the World Championship in the Asian zone, Japan is sure at least a bargain, and one win will give the team a certain boost. Trainer Halilhodzic has put together a great team where the first violin stars European clubs – Kagawa, Okazaki or Yoshida. The Blues Country side lost only one game in the final stages of the qualifying round – with United Arab Emirates in the first round. With Japan, the Japanese won 2-1, but the decisive goal was only in the 95th minute. We think that in the Middle East it may be difficult to win a favored team. In Iraq, everyone is playing hard, as evidenced by the tie with Australia 1: 1. We are betting that this time will be similar, but one point that Japan will take from the difficult ground will be very important for this cadre. Will practically guarantee her promotion.
Japan :
-Japan won the last 5 skirmishes with Iraq.
-Japan has not lost any of their last five matches.
-Both teams lose few goals – on average less than 1 goal per game.
