the first round of the world cup asian qualifiers will be launched soon. there will be 3 groups and 9 games in total. our national football team will challenge japan away. in addition, indonesia in the same group will challenge saudi arabia away, and bahrain will challenge australia away. the top three teams will all play at home. in addition, north korea and kuwait have returned to the final stage of the asian qualifiers after many years, and kyrgyzstan is participating for the first time. so how many upsets will there be in the first round?

the match we are most concerned about is, of course, the chinese national football team's away game against japan. this is the second consecutive world cup qualifier between the two sides. in the last 12-team match, the chinese national football team was defeated by japan both at home and away, and did not score a single goal, and was completely suppressed. after meeting again after 3 years, the chinese national football team is eager to get points in the first game, so as to boost morale for the next 18-team journey.

according to statistics, japan lost in the first round of the last two asian qualifiers, losing to the united arab emirates and oman respectively. the head coach of oman at that time was the current head coach of the chinese national football team, ivankovic, which made the entire japanese team very wary.
