The UAE and Iraq face off in Basra on Tuesday in the second leg of their 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifying playoff.
Kickoff is at 8:00 pm UAE time.
The clash is finely balanced after a 1–1 draw in the first leg in Abu Dhabi last week, when Iraq took the lead through Ali Al Hamadi, and Luanzinho equalised for the UAE.
The winner will move on to the Intercontinental Playoffs in March, where the final two spots at the World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico, will be decided.
