The other two teams in Group B are Australia and India, with Australia regarded as the stronger team and India considered the weaker.
With a steadily improving squad and an experienced manager, Uzbekistan is expected to be a dark horse in the Asian cup (e.g. soccer) and even have a chance to compete for the top spot in the group. Despite being the weaker team in the Asian cup (e.g. soccer) in the past, Uzbekistan has shown improvement over the years and has participated in several consecutive Asian cup (e.g. soccer) tournaments. They made history at the 2011 Asian cup (e.g. soccer), reaching the semifinals before losing to Australia.
Syria are considered the most competitive team in the group with Australia and Uzbekistan for the top two spots, and even though they are not as strong as the former two, they still have a chance to make it to the knockout rounds through the third-best group result.Syria's head coach is Hector Cooper from Argentina, who has guided his team to three wins, two draws, and four defeats in nine matches, including wins against Malaysia, Thailand and China. Although they beat North Korea 1:0 in their 2026 World Cup qualifier, they have faced challenges in other matches such as being beaten 5:0 by Japan.
This match will have a direct impact on the Group B standings, with a win for one of the teams taking the initiative to qualify. Fans can look forward to a close match to see which team will come out on top in the group stage.
