Football Livescore | Match Prediction & Tips
-----------------------------------------
Indonesia, sitting fourth with nine points, can advance in their AFC World Cup qualifiers by hosting China, who are last with six points, in their second-to-last group match.
Team Analysis:
Indonesia showed strong control against Bahrain but have struggled defensively, conceding many goals. They are unlikely to qualify directly but can advance if they beat China and Bahrain lose to Saudi Arabia. Indonesia’s recent form is mixed but includes some wins at home.
China has conceded heavily and sits behind Indonesia, needing a win to keep hopes alive. China has a poor away record and has lost their last three matches, despite winning their previous encounters with Indonesia.
Player Situation:
Indonesia is expected to use a three-man defense with Hubner, Idzes, and Ridho, while Haye and Pelupessy may start in midfield. Striker Romeny, who scored against Bahrain, could lead the attack with Sananta and Struick. China might deploy Yongjing Cao behind forwards Wei and Zhang, with midfielders Xu, Huang, and Xie likely starting ahead of defenders Han and Jiang.
Result Prediction:
Thursday's match is expected to be tight, but China's weak defense could leave them vulnerable to Indonesian counter-attacks.
Predicted Result: Indonesia 2-1 China.
