The defending champions Qatar are not only the favourites heading into this match but are also fancied to top Group A of this competition. The Maroons have gone through a tricky couple of years behind the scenes and will want to put that behind them with a solid showing on their home patch. We expect an electric atmosphere at the Lusail Iconic Stadium on Friday and are backing the hosts to get off to a winning start. Read more.
