A week earlier, the match on Oman's turf ended with a victory for the hosts with a score of 2-0. Will Malaysia manage to take revenge in the return fixture? Here's the forecast for the match from the team of Dailysports experts.
Malaysia
The Malaysian national team participated in the 2024 Asian Cup, albeit failing to make a significant impact. In a group with South Korea, Bahrain, and Jordan, the "Tigers" managed to secure only one point, thanks to a draw with South Korea (3-3) in the third match. However, matches against Bahrain (0-1) and Jordan (0-4) resulted in defeat for Kim Pan Gon's side. In the initial two rounds of the World Cup qualification tournament, Malaysia secured maximum points by defeating Kyrgyzstan at home (4-3) and Chinese Taipei away (1-0). However, they couldn't cause an upset in the third round, as Oman secured a victory, living up to the experts' predictions.
Oman
The tournament in Qatar wasn't successful for the Omani national team either. In three matches, "Al-Ahmar" managed to secure only two points, drawing with Thailand (0-0) and Kyrgyzstan (1-1). Additionally, there was a defeat in the opening match against Saudi Arabia with a score of 1-2.
