The Iranians have an advantage in this match because its result doesn't really matter to them. Even if Iran lose, they will still have a good chance of qualifying for the playoffs. As for the Canadians, their further participation in the tournament is at stake. Sure, they can then win over both Poland and Venezuela, but that seems very unlikely.

The Iranians look like the favourites. They don't have the pressure that Canada has, and that will allow them to show their best game. Taking into account the odds, we suggest betting on the victory of the Iranian national team.
