Should be a comfortable enough win for Wales. Although perhaps Iran aren't as bad as they looked against England and maybe can make a game of it.

 

[waspish]

Iran to win 3-1

 

[MadchesterCity]

Could be an upset in this one.

Wales might win.

Close game I think

Wales looked shite, they have nowhere near the quality to be carrying Bale and Ramsey, which they were doing the other night, Unless those two suddenly find some old form and match fitness.

Iran are not as bad an England made them look. That’s the first time they’ve conceded more than 3 for a long long time. They had only conceded more than 2 once since 2015. So unless they just become completely useless as defending overnight, I don’t see Wales banging many past them. Their record in the last 10 years, in their qualifying and beating the likes of Uruguay recently suggests that the other day v England was a one off in terms of defending and goals against them.

But Wales have usually put up a decent effort at tournaments, so I think they could get a narrow win. I wouldn’t bet on it though.

 

[shemnel]

Very evenly matched sides, any result possible. 2-2.

 

[Protein Junkie]

Heart says win, head says Wales needs to up it significantly to do that.
Would love to see Brennan Johnson start.
