World Cup 2026 Qualifiers Round 4 Draw Set for July 17 in Malaysia, Indonesia’s Fate Decided

The Asian Football Confederation (AFC) has announced that the draw for Round 4 of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers will take place on July 17, 2025, at the Hyatt Place Hotel in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. This event will determine the groupings and matchups for the final stage of the Asian qualification process, with media accreditation now open for coverage. The draw will play a crucial role in shaping the path for the Indonesian national team’s World Cup hopes.
In this round, six teams will be divided into two groups of three, with Saudi Arabia and Qatar serving as the hosts for each group respectively. The competition will use a single round-robin format, meaning each team will face its group opponents only once, resulting in just two matches per team during this stage. This condensed format raises the stakes for every game, as teams will have limited chances to secure their place.
The winner of each group will directly qualify for the 2026 World Cup, securing the last two Asian slots available for the tournament. Teams finishing second in their groups will move on to the playoff stage, keeping their hopes alive but adding another hurdle to overcome. This setup ensures an intense and competitive battle among all participants.
The six teams contesting Round 4 include Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Indonesia, Iraq, the United Arab Emirates, and Oman. Given the strength and experience of these teams, Indonesia faces a challenging task ahead, with no easy opponents in sight. The upcoming draw will reveal more details about the matchups and help teams prepare for the critical phase of qualification.
