A match in the Asian Cup qualification is set for Thursday in Lebanon, where the home team will face Bhutan. A bet on the outcome of this game looks promising.
Match Preview
Lebanon has started strong in the Asian Cup qualifiers and is currently leading their group. They opened the campaign with a 5-0 win against Brunei at home, followed by a draw against Yemen away.
In their last two friendlies, Lebanon secured a 1-0 win over Qatar on the road and played to a goalless draw against Indonesia earlier in September. They remain unbeaten in their last three matches and have conceded in just one of their last five games.
Bhutan, however, has had a tough start in the qualifiers and is at the bottom of the group with only one point. They drew 0-0 with Yemen at home in their first game but lost 1-2 to Brunei in their next match.
In total, Bhutan has one victory in their last five matches, which was a 1-0 win over Bangladesh in September. On the road, they have lost their last five games, allowing 16 goals while scoring just once.
Probable Lineups
- Lebanon: Mattar, Shour, Khamis, Sharafeddine, Al-Zein, Haidar, Khair El Dine, Saffwan, Kaddour, Al-Masri, Najjarine
