Uzbekistan and Syria will meet again in the AFC Asian Cup 1st round at the Jassim Bin Hamad Stadium Stadium, Al-Sadd Stadium Doha Saturday, January 13, 2024. Here’s the preview, h2h stats, predicted line-up, TV channel info, live streaming service providers and how to watch online.
This first match in the 2024 Asian Cup will be the starting point for Uzbekistan, one of the strongest candidates in Group B, on their way to the top. Uzbekistan and Syria are in the same group as Australia and India.
Uzbekistan has shown impressive performances throughout 2023. They managed to get maximum points in two qualifying matches for the 2026 World Cup in the Asian zone, and have an unbeaten record in seven consecutive matches.
With the ambition to reach the furthest stage possible in this Asian Cup, Uzbekistan will definitely not take the match against any team lightly, including Syria.
However, the road to victory will not be easy. Even though Syria have been held to draws by Malaysia and Kyrgyzstan in the last two friendlies, they remain tough opponents. Syria is in the same group as two strong teams, Uzbekistan and Australia, and of course they will try hard to win.
Meanwhile, Uzbekistan have shown significant improvement in their game and tactics in recent years. They showed a dominant and very technical game throughout 2023, and the 4-1 win over Kyrgyzstan was clear evidence of their improvement, followed by a 0-1 win over Palestine on January 7.
In this match, Uzbekistan is more favored. Srecko Katanec’s men have won two matches as a first step on their way to qualifying for the last 16 of the Asian Cup. In addition, Uzbekistan defeated Kyrgyzstan, who had previously drawn against Syria, with a score of 4-1.
However, although Uzbekistan have beaten Syria in three of their last four meetings on home soil, this match could end with a different result. Unexpected results can occur, such as the results of the last meeting between the two teams in the 2020 friendly match which was won by Syria with a score of 0-1.
