North Korea vs United Arab Emirates Prediction & Betting Tips (25 March)

If we put aside her participation in the 2010 World Cup where she had been beaten 3 times in 3 games, North Korea has no real weapons on an international scale. And this team will not be able to remedy this a priori situation since it closes the march in its pool of this 3rd round of the Asian qualifiers with 2 points taken only in 7 games, or 8 less than the last qualified for the dams. The samba of East Asia are also stuck in a bad dynamic of 4 consecutive defeats in this group. Beaten by Kyrgyzistan 1-0, Iran 2-3 and by Uzbekistan 0-1 last fall, the North Koreans lived a new difficult meeting last week against Qatar 5-1. The United Arab Emirates, too, only counts one participation in the World Cup, during the 1990 edition.

Nevertheless, this gulf selection seems much better than its opponent of the day to try to win his post for the World Cup 2026. Effect, Paulo Bento's men are in 3rd position in their hen, 6 lengths from Uzbekistan, 2nd, who at the same time faces the Iranian leader. Consequently, Zayed's sons have a great opportunity to bring together in the ranking. Paulo Bento players won 2 beautiful victories last November against Kyrgyzstan and Qatar Victories 5-0 and 3-0 before losing last week against Iran 2-0.

Logically, the North Korean workforce is far from being the best known by the general public and all the players in this training evolve in the very anonymous local championship. Kwang-Song (2 goals in 21 Sél), which had been able to play in Italy for a while, is not operational for this meeting, any more than the very effective striker Jong Il-Gwan who scored 32 goals in 85 selections. Against Qatar, it was the replacement Kwang-Hun Pak who saved the honor for his team. On the Emirates side, coach Paulo Bento should be able to count on all of his living forces for this part. All convened players also evolve in the domestic championship.

EISA (87 selections) should keep its place in the cages, partly protected by Al Hammadi (53 Sél) in particular. Suspended last week, the side Meloni (7 SEL) will be eligible again. Author of 7 goals in this campaign Qualifying (2nd and 3rd rounds combined), Fabio Lima (37 Sél) was only replacement against Iran.
