Iraq vs Indonesia prediction

Indonesia must win this game against Iraq, otherwise the likelihood is that they will end up finishing bottom of the group and wind up eliminated from World Cup contention. With that in mind, they have no choice but to try and take this game to their opponents, pushing bodies forward whenever possibly in an attempt to pin Iraq back inside their own half.

However, it would be no surprise if Iraq was to be afforded opportunities of their own on the counter-attack. They are more than capable of getting themselves on the scoresheet and we could be in for an exciting game. Regardless of the final outcome, consider backing over 2.5 goals to be scored.

Iraq vs Indonesia tip: Over 2.5 goals
