Following the consecutive victories, Bahrain takes on Kuwait in the third round of the Gulf Cup of Nations on Friday, 13 January. The Blue Wave also earned their first victory in the competition in the last game against the United Arab Emirates.

Match Result Prediction: Bahrain to Win

Bahrain had a winless pattern in Friendlies but they have registered back-to-back victories before this duel. On the other hand, Kuwait has conceded three defeats in the duration of the previous five outings. The Pearl Divers have also been impressive in the H2Hs against Kuwait and won four of the last five meetings. Considering the current situation, Bahrain seems the stronger side once again and is expected to take three points at the end.

Both Teams to Score Prediction: No

Bahrain has hit the target in all of the previous four outings and missed the chance in only one of the last 12 attempts. The Reds have allowed only two goals in the previous two outings and they kept four clean sheets in the previous five meetings with Kuwait. On the contrary, the Blue Wave have also failed to hit the target in three of the last four outings. So we can expect the Pearl Divers to claim another clean sheet in this duel.

Correct Score Prediction: 2-0 to Bahrain

Kuwait succeeded to keep a clean sheet in the last game but they have conceded seven goals in only the previous three H2Hs. The Pearl Divers have also rattled the net more than once in three of the last four outings. The Blues Wave also allowed two goals in the opening game of the Gulf Cup of Nations against Qatar. Therefore, the Reds are predicted to confirm a 2-0 lead at the end of this game.
