This point ensured a share of the spoils and keeping Iraq in contention for a play-off spot alive. The Iraq team has picked up 5 points from 8 matches and still eye the 3rd place finish in the group.

However, they are yet to win a single group match having drawn 5 and lost 3 of the 8 played.

On the other hand, UAE lost 1-0 away to Iran last time out as Taremi scored the only goal of the contest last month.

The loss leaves UAE in 3rd place with 9 points and a chance to seal a play-off spot in their hands.

A win for the visitors and that spot could well be theirs but a loss changes the equation of the group.

Both sides last met in October 2021, where UAE drew 2-2 against Iran.
