Command Analysis
Indonesia
IndonesiaCurrent form
The Indonesian national team is having a bad time in the current qualifying round and is in last place in Group C. However, this was to be expected, because the team is much weaker than most of its competitors. In the first matches, the team tried to cling to points and managed to defend draws with Saudi Arabia (1:1), Australia (0:0) and Bahrain (2:2), but in the last two matches, the Indonesian team was unable to cope with China (1:2) and Japan (0:4). In the second round, the team will try to win at least one victory.

Saudi Arabia
Saudi ArabiaCurrent form
The Saudi Arabian national team did not start the current qualifying round in the best way. The invitation of the famous Italian specialist Roberto Mancini did not help the team to become the leader of its group. In the first round, the team drew with Indonesia (1:1), and then with great difficulty defeated China (2:1). In the next three matches, the Arabian team did not score any goals. First, there was a defeat to Japan (0:2), and then goalless draws with Bahrain (0:0) and Australia (0:0). Now the team is headed by French coach Herve Renard, who already worked with this team from 2019 to 2023.

2.45Tip and bets
It is difficult for the hosts to compete at such a high level due to their weak lineup, so Saudi Arabia is considered the favorite of the match. The team is fighting to qualify for the World Cup, so they will do everything they can to beat the main outsider of the group. We believe that even on their home field, Indonesia will not be able to avoid defeat. We will bet on the success of the guests.
Our prediction is Saudi Arabia to win at 1.88
Bet on total
The hosts are unlikely to allow themselves to lose by a large margin, after all, they managed to defend a draw in the first match, which means the team is not that bad in defense. Most likely, this match will be tough, but without a large number of goals scored - the opponents are now clearly having problems with converting scoring chances.
Our prediction is total under 2.5 goals for 1.70
Bet on corners
Most likely, the opponents will play defensively, which means that many corner flag passes are not expected. We suggest betting on the total under this indicator.
Our prediction is total under 9.5 corners for 1.70
