Kuwait Preview – Can Kuwait spoil plans?
Kuwait were handed a heavy 3-0 defeat away at Australia in their previous match in Group B but the hosts have two more matches remaining to press home their claims for a possible top two finish in the group, and they must beat Jordan here if they’re to stand any chance.
Kuwait have recorded recent wins against Chinese Taipei 9-0 and Nepal 1-0 but the bigger picture shows that Kuwait have managed to win just three of their last 11 matches in Asian World Cup qualifiers, and they’ve failed to beat Jordan in each of their previous five meetings.
The hosts have also picked up just two wins from their last six matches at home in qualifiers.
Jordan Preview – Can Jordan keep Kuwait at arms length?
2nd placed Jordan hold a valuable three-point cushion over 3rd placed Kuwait prior to this crucial Friday night clash and the visitors will be seeking to make it three wins on the trot in Group B following previous wins against Chinese Taipei 5-0 and a 3-0 win away at Nepal.
Results overall in Asian World Cup qualifiers have been pretty steady where Jordan have been concerned as the visitors have lost just three of their last 17 qualifiers, two of these being against the Asian giants, Australia.
Jordan have also impressed on their travels as well with the visitors winning five of their last seven away matches in World Cup qualifiers which gives them a decent chance of picking up a result here.
