Syria head into this after a 2-0 away loss against UAE last time out, leaving them tottering at the bottom of Group A with just 2 points from 7 matches.
They play the remainder of the tournament for pride and aim to finish off with some positive results.
With 4 losses from their last 5 matches, things look bleak at the moment in the Syria camp.

On the other hand, South Korea is in pole position to qualify with a 1-0 away win over Lebanon.
Cho’s first half effort was enough to keep Korea in 2nd place with just a win required to seal qualification.
Korea has 17 points from 7 matches and can join Iran at the World Cup if they gain the win.
Both sides last met in October last year as part of the WC Qualifiers, where South Korea won 2-1 at home.

Prediction: Syria 0-2 South Korea
We expect the visitors to gain a fine win, which sends them to Qatar for the World Cup. South Korea is way too strong a team for the likes of Syria.
With no form and lack of goals, Syria is under the pump and don’t look the team to threaten the visitors much.
