Saudi Arabia vs Oman: Top Free Betting Tips

Saudi Arabia cannot afford to lose another match and this game will be massive. Here are our predictions.

Total Goals Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals

Oman are a high-scoring national team but they struggle against better defenses like the one of Saudi Arabia. Oman failed to score in four of the last five games against Saudi Arabia over the last few years. While this may change here, we generally do not expect more than one or two goals overall. Four of the last five matches between the two national teams ended with less than 2.5 goals.

Match Result Prediction: Draw

We think that there is a good chance for a draw in this match. The teams played twice over the last year and both times were won by Saudi Arabia. But at the same time, Oman played better football in both cases. Right now, it seems like Saudi Arabia are not in their best form and we think that Oman will not lose this match.

Correct Score Prediction: 0:0 Draw

We see a good chance for a match without a single goal. Oman have had a bunch of those in recent months and the team generally has a hard time scoring against higher-ranked opponents. Saudi Arabia are not in a good form and will also do their best not to lose this match.

Saudi Arabia vs Oman: Form, Recent Games, and News

Saudi Arabia Preview

Saudi Arabia gave the world one of the most shocking results in the history of the World Cup after beating the future World Champions Argentina with 1:2 in the opening game. Since then, however, the team failed in both other games and finished its participation. Nevertheless, they remain one of the best national teams in Asia and one of the favorites for this tournament even after the recent defeat to Iraq. But facing Oman will also be a huge challenge as always.

Oman Preview

Oman have definitely been impressive over the past few years and we see serious growth and potential for the future. They came one point short from qualifying in the World Cup. We expect them to be a contender for the next one, no doubt. The team is in an incredible defensive form and while they do not score a ton of goals, their defense rarely concedes.
