Qatar
The Qatar national team is one of the strongest on the continent, as evidenced by their recent performances in major tournaments. They won the last two Asian Cups in 2019 and 2024, and in between, they made their debut at the home World Cup.
Qatar begins the third stage of the qualifying cycle for the next World Cup as one of the favorites in their group. However, their opponents include strong teams like the UAE, Uzbekistan, and Iran.

The UAE is also a strong team capable of challenging their opponents. Although playing away is always difficult, they have the experience and quality to put up a fight against Qatar.
The UAE hasn’t appeared in the final stages of the World Cup since 1990, but they now have a good chance to secure a spot in North America. In the previous qualifying stage, they, like Qatar, confidently won their group.
