Inconsistencies have marked the recent results of Iraq. In their last six games, they have managed three victories to go with two draws and a defeat. However, they are unbeaten in the Gulf Cup so far with three wins and a draw. What will give Iraq lots of confidence is the fact that they have conceded only a single goal so far. Defensive prowess has guided them so far and they will hope that it continues to do so in the final.
Oman will be content with their form in their latest outings. They have managed four victories along with a draw and a narrow defeat to Germany in their last six matches. The final against defensively solid, Iraq poses a very tough challenge for Oman. Earlier meeting between these two sides in the tournament ended in a 0-0 stalemate. It is anyone’s guess as to who are the favourites to lift the trophy.
With this being the final, there is a very good chance that both the coaches will opt to go on with their tried and tested formula. It will provide them with a better chance to claim the trophy.
