    Iran U23 VS Lebanon U23 Iran must secure a big victory to advance, but at least they hold the initiative. Currently, Iranian media have started speculating whether Iran will play against Australia or Japan in the knockout stage. However, it's far from time to relax. According to well - known media reports, Iranian winger Askari was injured in the match against Uzbekistan and is likely to miss this game. Let's see what the data analysts think. In terms of strength, Lebanon can't match Iran. Lebanon has already advanced, so it's unclear how motivated they are. From the data perspective, Iran initially only offered a 1.5-goal handicap, which later increased to 1.75. For Iran, who needs to win by 2 goals or more, this level of support is quite low. After all, the whole world knows that they can advance with a 2 - 0 win. There's no reason for the bookmakers to let them have an easy ride. I support Lebanon to pull off an upset. Suggestion: Bet on Lebanon +1.75
