Uzbekistan vs Thailand Prediction & Match Preview

• Uzbekistan are undefeated in ten successive matches across competitions.
• They dispatched Thailand 2-0 in the AFC Asian Cup qualifier in June last year.
• Thailand go into this off the back of successive goalless draws to Oman and Saudi Arabia.

Two unbeaten sides go head-to-head in the last 16 round of the 2024 AFC Asian Cup as Uzbekistan take on Thailand on Tuesday afternoon at Al Janoub Stadium. Both teams have done very well defensively so far in the tournament, conceding just one goal combined.

Uzbekistan finished Group B in second place, two points shy of winners Australia. They opened the competition with a disappointing goalless draw to Syria only to bounce back in a 3-0 demolition of India. The last match revealed the team’s strength as Srecko Katanec’s troops held Australia to a 1-1 stalemate in the battle for the first place in the section.

Uzbekistan are now unbeaten in ten straight games in all competitions. They are favorites to continue this run in the matchup against Thailand who are among the most pleasant surprises of the tournament so far.

Thailand are yet to concede a goal. They advanced via the opening day’s 2-0 win over Kyrgyzstan. Back-to-back goalless draws to Oman and Saudi Arabia in the following two fixtures were enough to warrant Mastada Ishii’s troops a place in the last 16 round.

Recent Meetings

• Thailand have a positive record in this matchup with four wins and three defeats in the last seven encounters with Uzbekistan.
• Uzbekistan, however, claimed two separate 2-0 victories in the two latest clashes against Thailand.
• One of these victories came in the Asian Cup Qualifications in June last year.

Uzbekistan vs Thailand Prediction

Uzbekistan are unbeaten in ten successive games in all competitions while Thailand managed just two wins in the previous nine of their outings across competitions. Uzbekistan left a better impression in the group stage although Thailand did not concede a goal in any of their three outings.

Finally, Uzbekistan won the previous two H2H meetings with Thailand. We have no other option but to back Uzbekistan to win at the 1.60 odds as the main betting pick.

The bet you can hardly make a mistake with is Under 2.5 goals FT at 1.72 odds. Thailand’s back line looked phenomenal so far in the tournament while Uzbekistan have done very well defensively themselves, conceding just one goal in three group-stage affairs.
