Iran and the United States will battle it out in their final group match to secure passage to the knockout rounds of the FIFA World Cup 2022. They are just separated by a single point in Group B and will hope to seal one of the top two spots on Tuesday night. Both sides are entering this contest on the back of registering contrasting sets of results in their last game. As of now, Iran seem to be in a better position to progress through, however, the USA have the necessary quality to defeat them in their final group game.

The inconsistent form of the United States has continued into the World Cup, as they are in the middle of a five-match winless run currently. They played out back-to-back draws against Wales and England in their two group matches to be placed third in the standings. On the other hand, Iran made a disappointing start to the tournament, losing 6-2 to England. However, they bounced back from the setback to shock Wales in their last encounter. Iran are currently sitting second in the group.

The last time they played each other was in a friendly in 2000 and that match ended in a 1-1 draw.
