Indonesia were left spitting feathers in their first game of 2024 as they fell to a 2-1 friendly defeat against Libya after throwing away an early lead. Shin Tae-yong’s side have now lost three of their last four matches across all competitions, with a 1-1 draw against Philippines in the World Cup qualifiers on November 21 being the exception.
Indonesia have been drawn in Group D of the Asian Cup and will trade tackles with Japan, Vietnam and 2007 champions Iraq for a place in the knockout stages.
Iran, on the other hand, kicked off the new year as they would have hoped as they picked up a 2-1 friendly victory over Burkina Faso. Team Melli’s previous outing came on November 21, when they were held to a 2-2 draw by Uzbekistan in the World Cup qualifiers — a result which saw their nine-game winning streak come to an end.
Iran, who are currently 21st in the latest FIFA World Rankings, have been drawn in Group C of the Asian Cup, alongside Hong Kong, Palestine and the United Arab Emirates.
Indonesia vs Iran Head-To-Head and Key Numbers
*Iran have been utterly dominant in the history of this fixture, claiming four wins and one draw in the last five meetings between the teams.
*Team Melli are currently on an 11-game unbeaten run, claiming 10 wins and one draw since a 1-0 loss against the USA in the World Cup back in November 2022.
*Indonesia have failed to win their last four matches in all competitions, losing three and picking up one draw since a 6-0 hammering of Brunei on October 17.
*Since the 2022 World Cup, Iran have gone six consecutive away games without defeat, claiming five wins and one draw in that time.
Prediction: Indonesia 1-3 Iran
In their final warm-up game before taking centre stage in the AFC Asia Cup, Indonesia and Iran will be looking to pick up a morale-boosting result. However, given the gulf in experience and quality between the two sides, we fancy Ghalenoei’s men coming away with the desired result.
