Japan host Saudi Arabia at the Saitama Stadium in Group B of the FIFA World Cup 2022 Asia qualification Round 3. The hosts are second in the group with fifteen points from the first seven matches while the visitors sit top of the standings with nineteen points from the first seven matches. Japan come into the game with a 2-0 win over China. They have been defensively solid so far in the qualification tournament and have kept four clean sheets in their last six matches. Japan also have had under 2.5 goals in six out of their last seven matches. They are on a four game-winning run and look confident to get a slender win against a sturdy Saudi side themselves.

Saudi Arabia have confirmed their palace in the fourth round of the qualification and will be aiming to make it to Qatar with a direct qualification. They come into the game with a 1-0 win over Oman. However, Saudi Arabia have struggled to score enough goals. They have not scored more than one goal in any of their last six matches and thus have had under 2.5 goals in each of their last six matches. The last four meetings between the two teams also have had under 2.5 goals.
