Our first prediction for this encounter in this AFC Asian Cup fixture is Iraq to win 2-1 against Jordan. Team A has been in a good form lately, even beating Japan in a 2-1 victory making it 3/3 wins in the AFC competition for them. Iraq are yet to lose to Jordan since they last did in 2015. Jordan on the other hand have won just twice in their last 5 games and stand as the less favorite in their round of 16 tie against Iraq.
Prediction: Iraq Win
Our second prediction for this match is Over 2.5 Total Goals. Iraq have finished all of their last 3 matches with over 2.5 total goals outcome while Team B aren’t strangers to this occurrence as well as they have also finished 6 of their last 7 matches with at least 3 goals scored in each game. The likelihood of the two teams producing similar number of goals when they lock horns on Monday is relatively high, making the Over 2.5 total goals a very good bet.
Betting Tip: Over 2.5 Goals.
Iraq
Iraq appear to be in a very decent form in this tournament having won all of their matches so far, including a deserving victory against Japan. Iraq finished brilliantly at the top of the Group D table with 9 points and scored 4 goals than they conceded. The side are favorites to advance into the next round of the tournament as they prepare to go head to head with Jordan on Monday.
Jordan
Jordan are really not in their best shape currently, having won just one game in this tournament and finishing the Group at the 3rd place but managed to make it to the round of 16 based on the third place teams ranking advantage they had over other countries.
Iraq: Basil, Mohideen, Tahseen, Sulaka, Doski, Rashid, Allee, Madjed, Iqbal, Rasan, Al-Hamadi.
Jordan: Abu-Layla, Nasib, Bani, Al Ajalin, Shelbaieh, Awad Saleh, Ayed, Abu Hasheesh, Abu Jalbush, Olwan, Al Naimat.
