Iran preview | 3 points – 2nd place
The Iranian team has had a group stage that has surprised several fans. In the most recent matchday, the princes of Persia won against Wales in an agonizing match with many mixed emotions considering that the goals came in injury time.
The match started very evenly and in fact, the percentage of ball possession was mostly for Gareth Bale’s team. Seyed Hosseini (Iranian goalkeeper) responded with a lot of confidence to several approaches from the Welsh.
The goalposts twice denied Iran the chance to score. After the Welsh goalkeeper was sent off, in the 90+8′ minute came the first goal for the Asians and two minutes later, as if that were not enough, Ramin Rezaeian took the ball, scored and buried the Dragons’ World Cup dream.
With this result, Iran, who lost by a landslide on the first matchday, is in second place in Group B with 3 points, behind England. In this new clash between Iran and USA, the Asians are expected to repeat the feat with the confidence of Seyed Hosseini in goal and the efficiency of their strikers, so the Iranians are dreaming of making history.
Possible Iranian lineup (4-3-3): Seyed Hosseini, Sadegh Moharrami, Morteza Pouraliganji, Majid Hosseini, Milad Mohammadi, Ahmad Nourollahi, Rouzbeh Cheshmi, Ehsan Hajsafi, Alireza Jahanbakhsh, Mehdi Taremi and Ali Karimi.
USA preview | 2 points – 3rd place
The Americans come into this third match after a 0-0 draw against England on the last matchday. The team coached by Gregg Berhalter is still without a win in this edition of the Qatar 2022 World Cup and so far only draws.
The team led by Christian Pulisic had a good performance against the English, however, due to Jordan Pickford and the lack of effectiveness of their striker, they were unable to score any goals. In the match, which was actually very even, both teams had close calls and most of the ball possession went to the lions.
This new Iran vs USA match is a chance for the Stars and Stripes to get their first three points. The team has shown that it has what it takes to fight, but it is necessary to take the opportunities it has. With Timothy Weah and Weston McKennie at the helm, the USA is likely to get its first win.
Possible USA lineup (4-3-3): Matt Turner, Sergiño Dest, Walker Zimmerman, Tim Ream, Antonee Robinson, Weston McKennie, Tyler Adams, Yunus Musah, Timothy Weah, Haji Wright and Christian Pulisic.
JefeBet Prediction
For this new Group B clash between Iran vs USA, we believe that the Americans will be the ones to win. In the last match against England, the Americans showed that they are not afraid of any team even if they are favorites.
The presence of players like Christian Pulisic and Tyler Adams can be unbalancing at any time of the match, and the American goalkeeper has shown great virtues in this edition of the World Cup.
The Iran vs. USA match will be decisive for the qualification to the round of 16. If the United States does not win, it will be out of the tournament.
Prediction: USA win 2-1.
