2023 Asian Cup Preview: Indonesia vs Iraq Match Day 1 – Lineups, Head to Head, Prediction, and More

Bola.net – The Indonesian national team will meet the Iraqi national team on the first matchday of Group D of the 2023 Asian Cup, Monday 15 January 2023. The match between Indonesia vs Iraq will be played at the Ahmad bin Ali Stadium, starting at 21.30 WIB.

Indonesia is not performing well. Shin Tae-yong’s team has never won in the last five matches in all competitions. In that period, Indonesia was only able to score three goals.

Meanwhile, Iraq’s conditions are better. Jalal Hassan and colleagues won three times (including penalty shootouts) in the last five matches. Iraq has always won its last three matches against ASEAN countries, including winning on penalties against Thailand.

In terms of meeting records, Indonesia must recognize Iraq’s superiority. Because, in the last four duels, Iraq has always won. In November 2023, Iraq won a landslide victory with a score of 5-1 against Indonesia in the 2026 World Cup Qualifiers.

Score Prediction

Indonesia is not in ideal condition ahead of the duel against Iraq. Because, Pattynama may not be able to be played yet. Meanwhile, in terms of performance, conceding 11 goals in three test matches is a record for Shin Tae-yong’s team.

Iraq is actually also hit by doubts ahead of the 2023 Asian Cup. The team’s performance under the control of coach Jesus Casas is still unstable. However, compared to Indonesia’s conditions, Iraq has a greater chance of achieving positive results.

Score Prediction: Indonesia 1-2 Iraq.
