Uzbekistan U23 have posted 6 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses across their last 10 matches, riding a pretty impressive run of form in recent stretches. Japan U23, by comparison, have been almost unbeatable over the same sample, notching 9 wins and 1 draw with zero defeats at all. While the two sides are often considered fairly matched in overall strength, Uzbekistan U23 have strung together multiple winning runs, with reliable home performances that see very few losses on their own turf. That said, they went through a four-game losing streak not long ago, and their defensive organization has been noticeably shaky in their latest fixtures. Japan U23 are in far more consistent form right now, with their away displays also holding up to a high standard. It remains to be seen whether the host side can pull off a surprise upset to disrupt the expected outcome of this tie. Uzbekistan U23’s recent defensive inconsistencies have stood out as a key flaw in their current run of form. They have notche

Uzbekistan U23 have been in sensational form across this Asian Games run. They topped their group with three consecutive wins, before cruising to a 3-0 quarterfinal victory over Saudi Arabia U23, bagging 10 goals across four total matches while conceding only once to deliver incredibly steady showings on both ends of the pitch. Their regular 4-2-3-1 formation uses two defensive midfielders to lock down the midfield’s defensive solidity, while their physical, pace-heavy attacking line excels at high pressing. They can launch blistering counterattacks immediately once opponents make errors playing out from their own defensive third. Japan U23 have also secured full wins to advance to this stage, beating DPR Korea U23 1-0 in the quarterfinal. The team sticks to its mature, well-honed possession football philosophy, with its 4-3-3 setup circulating short passes through midfield and sending wide players on overlapping runs to pull apart opposition defenses. Though their goal output is not

Coming off a string of dismal recent outings, Seychelles carries massive attacking and defensive concerns even with home advantage in this international friendly. The side has failed to win any of their last 6 matches, notching only 1 draw while conceding 24 goals and scoring a single goal across that run. They were beaten 0-3 by Sri Lanka just three days prior, even though they held 56% possession, registered 7 shots on target and earned 7 corner kicks in that fixture, but failed to convert any of those chances. Their backline was breached three times from just three Sri Lankan shots on target, exposing extremely low efficiency on both ends of the pitch. Seychelles lacks consistent reliable finishers, and their poor defensive discipline has seen them pick up a high number of yellow cards in recent games, with clear issues in emotional control. The biggest variable in this rematch is whether they can turn their usual possession advantage into higher-quality chances. If they keep squand

Lithuania sits 149th in the latest FIFA rankings, a side that belongs to the lower-mid tier of European football, yet boasts a distinct overall strength advantage over their opponent here. Their recent form remains unimpressive: they notched a 2-0 away victory over Liechtenstein in the opening match of the Nations League, but their performance across the prior World Cup qualifying cycle was plagued by a chronic lack of goals and unstable defensive outputs. They mostly adopt a 4-2-3-1 regular formation, building their attack around wide crosses, long-range shots and set pieces. However, the side has not recorded a single home win for several years, with accumulated mental pressure and poor finishing efficiency becoming notable hidden flaws. Their squad rotation depth is also limited, as key right-back Silvestras and midfielder Matulevicius are both sidelined due to injuries. Facing Andorra's usual tight low-block defense, the key for Lithuania is to score the opening goal as early as po

Eritrea’s national football side has been hit by a severe player exodus that has greatly undermined their squad stability for this AFCON qualifying fixture. Shortly after they eliminated Eswatini in the 2026 AFCON preliminary round, seven of their domestic-based internationals went missing in South Africa, leaving the team with very limited available personnel. The side had also stayed away from formal competitive matches for a very long stretch before that, leading to obvious deficiencies in their overall strength, training quality and international match experience. Their tactical setup leans heavily on counter-attacks, set pieces and fast transitional plays. Forward Ali Suleiman carries notable threat on breakaways, while goalkeeper Yonas Sultan has proven reliable in shot-stopping scenarios. However, key defender Jamal Ali is currently dealing with a fitness issue, which weakens the backline’s ability to withstand high pressure. The team will find it extremely difficult to play
