Iran arrives at this round with a 0-3 victory at Syria, thus registering the second consecutive triumph in this qualifying phase: the team's goals were signed by Ali Gholizadeh, Ehsan Hajsafi and Sardar Azmoun. In this match against Iraq, coach Dragan Skocic should keep the 4-3-3, with Mehdi Taremi, Vahid Amiri and Ali Gholizadeh being the most offensive references.

In this competition, they haven’t won any of the last 7 matches. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 6 of the last 8 matches have ended with Under 2,5 goals.

Iraq comes to this clash with a 1-0 victory against Uganda, in a preparation game for the next official games. In the last match of this qualifying phase, the Iraqis lost against South Korea by 0-3.
