Jordan vs Pakistan prediction and betting tips on March 26, 2024
One of the matches in the qualifying cycle for the 2026 World Cup is scheduled to be played in Amman on the "Amman International Stadium," where the Jordanian national team will host Pakistan. Here's the prediction for this match from the experts at Dailysports.
Jordan
The Jordanian national team created a true sensation at the 2024 Asian Cup. The "Eagles," who had never advanced beyond the quarter-finals before, reached the final of the tournament, where they were defeated by the hosts Qatar with a score of 1-3. What's most astonishing is that Jordan finished only third in the group stage, yet managed to shine in the knockout stage.
On their way to the final, they defeated Iraq, Tajikistan, and South Korea. However, their journey to the World Cup started off poorly, with just one point earned in two matches - a draw against Tajikistan at home and an away loss to Saudi Arabia. Fate turned in their favor in the third round with an away victory over the group's underdog Pakistan, securing a 3-0 win.
Pakistan
In contrast to their opponents, the Pakistani national team can only dream of reaching a major football tournament, let alone the final. In their history, the "Green Falcons" have never qualified for the Asian Cup or the World Cup. Jordan's journey in the qualifying tournament for the 2026 World Cup has already seen them play three matches, with no points accumulated yet.
Pakistan's qualifying campaign began with a defeat to Saudi Arabia, where they lost by a significant margin of 0-4. Following this, the "Green Falcons" suffered an even heavier defeat to Tajikistan, losing 1-6. Continuing the trend, in the third round, the Pakistani team failed to offer any resistance to Jordan at home, resulting in a 0-3 loss. It's worth noting that prior to this, in the first qualifying round, the "Green Falcons" progressed past Cambodia with a 1-0 aggregate victory.
Interesting facts about the match and head-to-head history
- Jordan has emerged victorious in all three encounters against Pakistan.
- Only in one of the three matches have the "Green Falcons" managed to breach Jordan's defense.
- The "Total over 2.5" bet has been successful in all three matches.
Jordan vs Pakistan Prediction
The main question here revolves around how many goals Jordan will ultimately score. Considering that this will be their first home match following their triumphant performance at the Asian Cup, it's unlikely that they will hold back. Our bet is on "Jordan to win with a (0) handicap" with odds of 1.62.
