Saudi Arabia take on the visitors Mexico in the round 3 match of group stage of FIFA World Cup 2022. The match will be played on Wednesday, November 30th at Lusail Iconic Stadium (Lusail).
Saudi Arabia literally blew up the football world with its 2-1 victory over Argentina in the first leg of the 2022 World Cup. Moreover, the team of Herve Renard showed an excellent level of play in the second meeting of the World Cup against Poland. Saudi Arabia played better than the opponent, but did not convert their chances, including a missed penalty, and eventually lost with a score of 0:2. Now, to reach the 1/8 finals of the 2022 World Cup, the Saudis just need to beat Mexico. Despite nice football showed at the Qatari World Cup itself, in general, in 2022, the results of the Saudi Arabian national team were not great. So, the team of Herve Renard has only two victories in the last six matches.

The Mexican national team for the first time in eight world championships may not reach the playoffs. The team of Gerardo Martino has no choice but to beat the national team of Saudi Arabia, and do it with the largest possible score. In Group C, goal difference will be decisive. Mexico has nowhere to retreat. This great team has made it to the knockout stages of the World Championships in 1994, 1998, 2002, 2006, 2010, 2014 and 2018. Now the Aztecs are on the verge of breaking this amazing streak of success. Based on the results of two matches played, Mexico has 1 point and the last place in the group. However, the Mexican team has not yet lost hope. With 4 points, the Mexicans can claim second place in Group C. They can beat Argentina on points, and Poland only on additional indicators. They have Mexico now worse than all rivals. Therefore, the Aztecs need a win, at least by two goals.
In 1995, 1997 and 1999, the national teams of Mexico and Saudi Arabia met in the Confederation Cup matches. All three meetings were won by the Mexicans, and all three times with a difference of several goals. Odds of 1.71 are offered by bookmakers for the victory of the Mexican team against 4.14 for a draw and 4.72 for the success of Saudi Arabia. We believe in the Mexican national team and we believe that this team will play at least one bright match at the World Cup in Qatar. It won't be easy against Saudi Arabia. But the Mexicans must finally play from a position of strength.
Prediction for the match: Mexico to win.
