Kuwait
DDLLDL 📉
Kuwait will be hoping to bounce back here after a 0-1 WC Qualifiers - Asia loss in their previous game against Oman.
In that match, Kuwait had 48% possession and 9 shots on goal with 1 on target. Oman had 7 shots on goal with 3 on target.
It’s been a rare occasion in recent times where Kuwait haven’t conceded. It will be a concern for them that Kuwait have been scored against in 6 of their previous 6 games, shipping 9 goals on the way. It will be interesting to find out if that trend will be continued on in this game.
Palestine
LDLDLW
Palestine will come into the match following on from a 2-1 WC Qualifiers - Asia win with the eclipse of Iraq in their most recent game.
In that game, Palestine had 54% possession and 14 shots at goal with 5 of them on target. The scorer for Palestine was Wessam Abou Ali (88'). At the other end, Iraq had 13 shots at goal with 3 of them on target. Aymen Hussein (34') scored for Iraq.
The stats don’t lie, and Palestine have been scored against in 6 of their last 6 games, with opponents netting 9 goals in all. In defence, Palestine could really do with shoring things up.

Prediction
We are of the inclination to think that Palestine and Kuwait could both end up scoring in a what should be a good tussle with little between the two teams.
It’s looking like it could well end up as a draw. We’re therefore tipping a 1-1 score draw at the end of this game.
