Australia vs Saudi Arabia Prediction & Betting Tips - World Cup
by Daniel Ngulu in World Cup Predictions
At the Melbourne Rectangular Stadium this Thursday, Australia will play host to Saudi Arabia in the third round of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. With one win apiece in four matches, both teams will be keen on rising here. Let’s have a look at the prediction for the match.
A superior goal difference has Australia sitting in second spot in Group C. The Socceroos will be looking to stay in the qualification slots with three more points here.
In their last two matches against Saudi Arabia, they failed to win - drawing one and losing the other. Australia have, however, never lost at home to Saudi Arabia.
Saudi Arabia will head to Australia hoping to shake off a congested race for second place in this group. They have a -1 goal difference with their only win having been against whipping boys, China.
That happens to be Saudi Arabia’s sole win in the last five. A poor scoring run has been an issue for the Saudis. They failed to score in the last two matches; the most recent of them a 0-0 draw with Bahrain. The Saudis are walking on thin ice here. Any result other than a win could see them leapfrogged by Bahrain.

Our Australia vs Saudi Arabia Prediction
Only one goal was netted in the last two meetings between these teams. It was scored by Saudi Arabia, who do not happen to have a strong run away to Australia. The hosts will want to make this advantage count, but their scoring run hasn’t been great either.
Three of their last four matches had under 2.5 goals as a result. Meanwhile Saudi Arabia’s last five matches produced an average of 2.0 goals. With such stats, our prediction for Australia v Saudi Arabia is for under 2.5 goals.
