Oman vs Kuwait Prediction and Match Preview

Oman vs Kuwait Prediction

Oman had to face South Korea and Iraq in their opening matches and as expected, they lost both the fixtures. They will enter the third round of qualifiers following a 1-2 defeat against South Korea and will expect to alter their current negative run.

On Thursday, Oman will host Kuwait in the third round and the guests have draw the first two qualification outings. Kuwait faced Jordan and Iraq in their opening games and will enter this match following a goalless draw against Iraq. It is worth noting that they won just once in the past 14 matches across all competitions.

Moving on, Oman can also rely on the recent head-to-head tradition as they won the past five meetings against Kuwait in a row. Do also note that Oman has not allowed goals from Kuwait offense in four of the last five meetings. On top of that Oman lost just once against Kuwait with hosting advantage. By the looks of things, we expect a pleasant day for the local supporters at Sultan Qaboos Sports Complex on Thursday.

Oman have a decent form at home of late. They were unbeaten in nine of their last 10 home outings and has faced some impressive Asian outfits in that period. Their only defeat in the past 10 home outings were against South Korea which is noteworthy. Meanwhile, Kuwait is on a five-match winless streak on the road and has lost three in that period. They allowed 7 goals in the past three away defeats which is worth enough noting.

Oman have scored 10 goals in their last four home wins. On the other hand, we have a Kuwait side who has allowed goals at a rate of over 2.5 on the road. In that case, we like to start with Oman to win 3-0 as the main pick. Also, the goal trend of Oman inclines us to suggest the -2.5 Asian Handicap tip.
