Indonesia and Iran will meet again in the Friendlies Friendly Match at the Doha Stadium, Qatar Tuesday, January 09, 2024. Here’s the preview, h2h stats, predicted line-up, TV channel info, live streaming service providers and how to watch online.
Indonesia and Iran have very different meeting records. Of the two previous meetings, Iran won both meetings. Their last meeting occurred in 2011, when Iran beat Indonesia with a score of 3-0 and 1-4 in the qualifying round for the 2014 World Cup. Iran’s goals at that time were scored by Javad Nekounam, A. Teymourian, M. Jabari, and Gholamreza Rezaei , while Indonesia’s sole goal was scored by Bambang Pamungkas.
The FIFA rankings also show a huge difference in quality between the two teams. Iran is ranked 21st in the world, while Indonesia is ranked 146th. Iran is one of the best teams in Asia. Iran is favored to win this match easily, and will not give Indonesia the opportunity to steal points.
The recent performance of the two teams is also very contrasting. Iran are in fine form, having won four of their last five matches, including wins over Qatar, Hong Kong and most recently, Burkina Faso.
The Indonesian national team, on the other hand, is in poor form, having lost three of their last five matches, including a heavy defeat to Iraq, and most recently losing to Libya in the previous test match ahead of the 2024 Asian Cup.
Key players are also an important factor that differentiates the two teams. Iran has several key players who play in top European leagues, such as Sardar Azmoun (AS Roma), Mehdi Taremi (Porto), and Alireza Jahanbakhsh (Feyenoord). They are expected to show their class and score goals for Iran.
Meanwhile, Indonesia under Shin Tae-yong also has star players who play abroad, but only started joining the national team after going through the naturalization process. The national team players include Rafael Struick (HFC ADO Den Haag), Jordi Amat (Johor Darul Ta’zim, having previously played for Swansea City, Real Betis and Rayo Vallecano), Ivar Jenner (FC Utrecht), Shayne Pattynama (Viking FK), and Elkan Baggott (Ipswich Town).
Who will win? Nothing is certain yet, but with all the factors above, Iran is expected to be the favorite to win this friendly match.
