Russia - Iran: betting tip (cf 4.75) and bets on the friendly match

Current form

The Russian national team has not participated in official international tournaments for a long time, but it regularly holds friendly matches in which it plays a variety of combinations and looks at a huge number of candidates. In the control matches, Valery Karpin's team looks more than worthy and has not suffered a single defeat, despite the fact that some of the opponents were of a fairly high level.

In September, the Russian national team held two BetBoom friendly matches. In the first of them, our guys took on the Jordanian national team. Despite the fact that the Russians were considered the undisputed favorites of the match, they failed to win – the opponent looked quite decent and even had his moments. The goalless draw generally reflected what was happening on the field, but at the same time, Valery Karpin did not field the strongest squad.

In the second match, the Russian national team played away against Qatar. This time, the line-up was very close to the strongest, and there were no problems. By halftime, the Russians had a three-goal advantage and eventually won 4-1 in Doha. Nail Umyarov, who is having a great season, has a chance to make his debut today, and Mingiyan Beveev can also play his first match for the national team.

Current form

The Iranian national team looked very confident in qualifying for the World Cup and fully justified its status as a clear contender for a ticket to the World Cup. In the final stage of the selection, the Iranian national team was in the same group with Uzbekistan, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Kyrgyzstan and North Korea. As expected, the Princes of Persia secured a direct ticket to the World Cup ahead of schedule.

In 10 rounds, the Iranian national team scored 23 points and won the group with them, beating the second Uzbekistan by two points. Over the entire tournament distance, Amir Galenoi's team made only three mistakes, losing 0-1 to Qatar in the penultimate round and drawing two more draws. However, all these failures happened already at the finish line, and by that time the Iranians had already secured a ticket to the World Cup.

In September, the Iranian national team played at the FAZA Nations Cup, a tournament attended by teams belonging to the Central Asian Association. In the group with India, Tajikistan and Afghanistan, the Iranians turned out to be the strongest with seven points, but in the final they lost to the Uzbek national team in a penalty shootout after a goalless draw in regular time.
