Team Reviews
Kuwait (Rank 136, 6th in Group B, 5 points)
Form: 0W-5D-3L; recent 1-1 draw vs. Jordan, 0-1 loss to Oman.
Strengths: Playing at Jaber Al-Ahmad International Stadium, Kuwait relies on Yousef Nasser’s goal-scoring (2 goals vs. Palestine in October 2024). Coach Juan Antonio Pizzi’s defensive setup keeps games tight.
Weaknesses: Winless in 8 third-round matches, scoring only 7 goals. Defensive errors led to 14 goals conceded. Elimination likely, with no direct qualification chance.
Key Players: Nasser (striker), Mohammad Daham (midfield), Sulaiman Abdulghafour (GK).
Palestine (Rank 96, 5th in Group B, 6 points)
Form: 1W-3D-4L; recent 2-1 win vs. Iraq, 1-1 draw vs. South Korea.
Strengths: Resilient despite playing home games at neutral venues (Amman, Jordan) due to ongoing conflict. Wessam Abou Ali and Ameed Mahajneh’s late goals vs. Iraq show clutch scoring. Coach Ihab Abujazar’s attacking intent boosts morale.
Weaknesses: Defensive lapses (12 goals conceded in 8 matches). Only one win in qualifiers limits top-four chances (4 points behind Oman). Inconsistent finishing.
Key Players: Abou Ali, Mahajneh, Zaid Qunbar (scored vs. Kuwait).
Head-to-Head Analysis

Trends: Four of last five H2Hs ended in draws, with both teams scoring in three. Matches average 2.8 goals, suggesting open play. Kuwait’s home彼此
Prediction: Kuwait 2-2 Palestine
Kuwait, already eliminated, play for pride at home. Palestine needs a win to keep slim fourth-place hopes alive for Round 4. A loss ends their campaign.Kuwait’s home advantage and defensive approach face Palestine’s desperate attacking push. Recent H2H trends and both teams’ scoring struggles point to a tight, high-scoring draw. Kuwait’s Nasser can exploit Palestine’s defensive gaps, while Palestine’s Abou Ali and Qunbar’s recent form suggests they’ll score. Both teams’ urgency and H2H history of draws favor a stalemate.
