PALESTINE PREVIEW: BLUNTED AGAIN GOING FORWARD
It’s now just one goal scored for Palestine across their three matches played following a narrow 1-0 defeat at the hands of Iraq. They’ve failed to take advantage of an unexpected point vs Korea Republic, having since lost against Iraq and Jordan prior to that.
KUWAIT PREVIEW: DEFENSIVE MELTDOWN COSTS KUWAIT
An awful performance from Kuwait last time out, particularly within their backline saw them thrashed 4-0 by Oman, a huge blow to their World Cup prospects. Not only does it keep them on two points, it hugely dents their goal difference, which is now the worst in Group B as it stands.

PALESTINE VS KUWAIT PREDICTION
A draw doesn’t do much to help either of these two nations when you factor in where they are in the Group B table. With victory needed badly by both teams, expect an exciting encounter which sees Palestine and Kuwait each prioritise attacking and pushing bodies forward ahead of defensive stability. Therefore, backing over 2.5 goals to be scored should be seriously considered.
