This week’s Group B matchup between Iran and Gareth Southgate’s England team at the Khalifa International Stadium is a crucial one for the 2022 FIFA World Cup. England is currently in the first place, and Iran is in second.
Given the completion of their Euro 2020 campaign, England is one of the favorites to win the 2022 World Cup, and Southgate is under pressure to break the country’s 54-year trophy drought. Iran is competing in its sixth World Cup and will be looking to advance past the preliminary stage for the first time ever.
England vs Iran Prediction
Under Southgate, England has become a more serious contender for the championship this year. Because Harry Kane and Raheem Sterling have already played together, they must use that knowledge to their advantage in these games.
In order to have a chance in this match, Iran, who can put on a strong performance when they want to, will need to be at their best. This game should be won by England because they are currently the superior team.
Prediction: England is to win this game.
