Editor's Prediction
Jordan's national team has delivered an impressive qualifying campaign, consistently finding the net and conceding in almost every match-over 1.5 goals were scored in 14 of their last 15 games. Similarly, Iraq have been showcasing attacking football towards the end of the tournament, with this goal line surpassed in five consecutive matches involving them. Given that Jordan have already secured their first-ever World Cup appearance, while Iraq are fighting for third place, betting on over 1.5 goals seems like a well-founded prediction.
