The road to North America continues as Oman take on Qatar in Group A of the AFC Fourth Round. The fixture opens the group in Doha, with both sides aware that a winning start could define their World Cup qualification hopes. Oman need to shake off a poor scoring run, while the hosts arrive with momentum and goals flowing in every match.
Oman’s recent results underline a team struggling for rhythm. They have scored just three goals across their last five qualifiers, failing to find the net in two of them. A 1-1 draw away to Palestine was followed by a heavy 0-3 home loss to Jordan that exposed defensive gaps and a lack of cutting edge up front.
Away from home, the Reds earned a gritty 1-0 win over Kuwait, showing discipline but limited attacking ambition. Their pattern suggests resilience against stronger sides yet not enough creativity to dictate games. Against a free-scoring Qatar, Oman must balance compact defending with more assertive forward play — something that has been missing in recent months.
Qatar come into this stage in outstanding form, firing 13 goals in their last four World Cup qualifiers. Wins over Iran (1-0) and Kyrgyzstan (3-1) showcased control and sharp finishing, while the emphatic 5-1 and 5-0 victories against North Korea and UAE reminded everyone of their attacking depth.
Although a 0-3 defeat in Uzbekistan served as a small wake-up call, the Maroons remain the most consistent Asian side outside Japan. Playing at home further strengthens their position; they have scored at least three times in every home qualifier so far. Their early pressing and fast wide combinations often overwhelm visitors, and that could once again be decisive here.
Qatar’s firepower and home comfort should prevail, but Oman’s structure can keep it competitive. Expect an entertaining, goal-filled opener to Group A.
This matchup offers a clear contrast: Oman’s cautious approach versus Qatar’s dynamic attack. The hosts’ balance between early intensity and composure inside the box makes them strong favorites. With home advantage and superior recent scoring form, Qatar should control possession and create multiple clear chances.
Oman’s compact defensive setup could delay the breakthrough but not prevent it. Once Qatar establish rhythm, their front line often converts dominance into goals quickly, particularly in the first half. That supports the HT/FT Qatar/Qatar angle.
Considering both teams’ recent scoring trends, Over 2.5 Goals is also appealing. Oman tend to concede early when pressed, and Qatar’s home confidence usually lifts the pace. Expect some resistance before the Maroons pull clear in the second period.
