Thursday's International Friendlies predictions including Argentina vs. Australia

Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's International Friendlies fixtures, including Argentina vs. Australia.

Japan head into their international friendly with El Salvador on Thursday looking to end a three-match winless streak in all competitions.

The visitors to the Toyota Stadium have endured a dismal run for a year, failing to win any of their six fixtures during that period.

We say: Japan 2-0 El Salvador


Although both of these nations have not posted victories of late, Japan's matches have been against far better opposition. With that in mind, as well as home advantage, we can only back the Asian giants to prevail in comfortable fashion.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Philippines vs. Nepal (Thursday, 12.00pm)

Philippines square off against Nepal on Thursday looking to record a rare victory on the international stage.

In sharp contrast to their hosts, Nepal are on their best run of form in years, creating an intriguing dynamic ahead of the meeting at Rizal Memorial Stadium.

We say: Philippines 1-2 Nepal


While each of Philippines many defeats have come away from home, we cannot ignore the amount of goals that have been conceded. With that in mind, we fancy Nepal to add to their recent run of victories, even if it is a closely-fought contest.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Singapore vs. P. New Guinea (Thursday, 12.30pm)

Seeking to stretch their unbeaten run in friendly matches to five games, 158th-ranked Singapore host 159th-ranked Papua New Guinea at the National Stadium on Thursday lunchtime.

The hosts will also take on the Solomon Islands during this month's international period, while their visitors prepare for a sojourn to Malaysia once this week's contest is done and dusted.

We say: Singapore 1-1 Papua New Guinea


Only one place separates the two minnows in the FIFA World Rankings at present, and we expect the standings to ring true in Thursday's affair.

There is no shortage of goals in the Papua New Guinea ranks, but Singapore have a respectable unbeaten run to protect and can strike back on home soil to hold their visitors to a draw.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Argentina vs. Australia (Thursday, 1.00pm)

World Cup winners Argentina take on Australia in an international friendly at the Workers' Stadium in Beijing on Thursday.

While La Albiceleste are still basking in the glory of their 2022 triumph in Qatar, the Socceroos are seeking revenge against the nation who knocked them out at the last-16 stage.

We say: Argentina 3-0 Australia


Considering the strength in depth within Argentina's squad and the lack of international experience within Australia's youthful group, the reigning world champions will be regarded as firm favourites to come out on top on Thursday, with Messi and co expected to have plenty of joy in the final third.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Cambodia vs. Bangladesh (Thursday, 1.00pm)

Bangladesh will ramp up preparations for the upcoming South Asian Football Federation Championship when they travel to the National Olympic Stadium for a friendly with Cambodia on Thursday evening.

While the visitors have competitive commitments to take into account this month, their hosts have just the one exhibition match scheduled in the wake of their short-lived AFF Championship run.

We say: Cambodia 2-2 Bangladesh


As well as the head-to-head column going against them, Cambodia have lacked defensive resilience over the past 12 months, although they have made up for such frailties in front of their own fans with a glut of goals.

Bangladesh - who sit 16 places lower than Cambodia in the world rankings - will also be keen to avoid picking up any injuries before their competitive commitments begin, and we are struggling to separate the two nations in this one, so an entertaining draw may be on the cards.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Vietnam vs. Hong Kong (Thursday, 1.30pm)

After reaching the final of the AFF Championship, Vietnam will be aiming to continue their impressive form when they host Hong Kong in an international friendly on Thursday.

The Dragons have undergone a long stretch without a victory following six consecutive matches, adding even more pressure to them.

We say: Vietnam 3-0 Hong Kong


Vietnam have been enjoying a strong run of form as of late, and their defensive strength combined with Hong Kong's recent lack of attacking threat should lead to the hosts earning a comfortable win.

Our tipster partners are predicting a home win.

Jamaica vs. Qatar (Thursday, 5.00pm)

Jamaica and Qatar will meet for a friendly international in Austria on Thursday as both sides prepare for the CONCACAF Gold Cup later this month.

The Reggae Boyz last took to the field back in March, while the Maroons returned to action for the first time since January with a defeat to Croatia B last week.

We say: Jamaica 1-1 Qatar


It goes without saying that Jamaica will be desperate to end their eight-game winless run ahead of the CONCACAF Gold Cup, but the Reggae Boyz may have to settle for a draw against Qatar, as Carlos Queiroz is renowned for his defensive tactics.
