Jordan vs Syria Prediction
Jordan have been the more consistent team and also have home advantage in their favour. Syria, for their part, are also in a confident mood, having won two and drawn one of their last three games.
Both teams are relatively compact in their style and are likely to play cautiously. That means goalscoring opportunities might be hard to come by in a low-scoring game. Jordan should claim a narrow victory and also keep a clean sheet.
