With the win here, Iran would do a great job with two games in hand before the group stages of World Cup qualifications ends.

Iran qualified for 4 of the last 6 World Cups and are certainly no stranger to the greatest football stage. So they are currently making light work of their bid to earn a spot in Qatar and are in a good moment, as they have won 11 out of the last 12 games in all competitions! Drew with strong S.Korea only in the mentioned period. Here, they will be without star man Sardar Azmoun, a new signing for Bayer Leverkusen, who has tested positive for coronavirus, so the overall attacking quality is surely on a lower level without Azmoun. But, Iran is still a better team than Iraq even without their key player. Hosts have some other names coming from their ranks and are perhaps close to the potential of Azmoun.

Iraq are chasing the third position in the group and are 2 points behind but is unreal to expect anything from them with 0 wins in 6 games so far while creating a 3-9 goal difference record. Visitors are on two levels above Iran in every circumstance. Visitors Iraq scored only in 1 game in the last 5 visiting matches. Questions arise about the fitness of Hussein Ali who is a regular playmaker of the team. He is close to miss the match.

There will be about 11000 fans in National Stadium in Teheran, good atmosphere to celebrate the home win which would give Iran a definitive ticket to Qatar World Cup. The home win is a good bet here.

如果能够取得胜利，伊朗将在世界杯预选赛小组赛阶段结束前完成比赛。

伊朗获得了过去 6 届世界杯中的 4 次参赛资格，对于世界杯舞台当然并不陌生。因此，他们目前正在努力争取在卡塔尔获得一席之地，并且处于一个好时机，因为他们在过去 12 场比赛中赢得了其中的 11 场！仅与强大的韩国平分秋色。本场他们将缺少球星萨达尔·阿兹蒙，他是勒沃库森的新签约球员，他的冠状病毒检测呈阳性，因此没有阿兹蒙的情况下，整体进攻质量肯定会处于较低水平。但是，即使没有关键球员，伊朗仍然是一支比伊拉克更好的球队。主队还有一些其他球员，可能接近阿兹蒙的潜力。

伊拉克正在追逐小组第三的位置，落后 2 分，但到目前为止，他们在 6 场比赛中取得 0 胜，而对他们抱有任何期望是不现实的。创造了3-9的净胜球成绩。在任何情况下，伊朗的实力比伊拉克高出两档。伊拉克客队近5场客场比赛仅1场取得进球。球队常规组织核心的侯赛因阿里的健康状况出现了问题。他可能错过比赛。

德黑兰国家体育场将有大约11000名球迷，主场获胜的气氛很好，这将使伊朗获得卡塔尔世界杯的最终门票。主场胜利是一个不错的选择。
