In their last clash in early June, they were humbled 5-0 by UAE at home with Mabkhout and Lima scoring two goals each while Tagliabue also getting his name on the scoresheet.
On the other hand, Chinese Taipei had an even worse World Cup Qualification campaign where they finished bottom of the table without registering a single win or point.
