After securing their ticket to the World Cup in March, the Lions of Persia will play their third friendly game in a row. Their matchup against Algeria in June ended in a (2-1) loss against the Northern African side; however, Iran bounced back as they defeated Uruguay (1-0) a few days ago.

Iran will be gracing the World Cup tournament in Qatar after eight wins, one draw and a loss against South Korea. That's twenty-five points from a possible thirty.

A win here will further strengthen their morale as they prepare for Qatar 2022.

Iran has never lost a home match in the past three years and is ranked 23rd best team in the world.

Two of the best teams in their continent will clash in Austria today, and both teams are solid defensive teams with significant attacking threats up front. It will be a tight contest, and we expect both teams to settle for a draw here; bet on a full-time draw for 3.26.

Both teams head into this game with similar form, and we expect them to score a goal each for 2.03.

A correct score of (1-1) might surface here for 5.00.

Good luck!
