Palestine vs Iran Prediction, H2H Stats & Statistical Bets 14 November 2026
🔊 Palestine will face Iran in an international friendly tournament in Basra. For Palestine, this is an important stage of their preparations for the Asian Cup, while Iran are using the November international window to assess a refreshed squad. The teams met at the 2024 Asian Cup, when Iran won. However, Palestine's recent results look more convincing: they have gone a long time without defeat and recorded several high-scoring wins. Iran, by contrast, suffered two consecutive defeats in September, so the favourites face a tough test.
Head-to-head record
📊 The teams last met on 14 January 2024 in the Asian Cup group stage. Iran won 4-1.
Head-to-head statistics Palestine - Iran
Palestine: unbeaten run
Palestine are enjoying a very good run. In their last five matches, the national team have recorded two wins and three draws. In September, they drew with New Zealand (2:2) and Kyrgyzstan (0:0). Later, Palestine beat Tajikistan (4:2) and thrashed China 5:0 away from home. They have thus scored nine goals in their last two matches, confirming their attacking potential. Palestine arrived in Basra ahead of time, where they continue to prepare for the match. Unlike in previous years, they have become more confident against high-level opponents and are capable of giving the favourites a contest.
Match Results: Palestine
Iran: no wins
Iran suffered two consecutive defeats in September. They first lost to Uzbekistan (1:3), then to Russia (0:2). Before that, Iran played at the World Cup, where they drew three matches, but those results were not enough to take them through to the knockout stage. They have therefore failed to win any of their last five matches. Despite the players’ high individual quality, the results show that Iran need to improve their attacking play and regain confidence in defence.
Match Results: Iran
⚽ Goals prediction
Palestine have scored nine goals in their last two matches, but Iran have a more experienced defensive line. On the other hand, Iran themselves were not particularly prolific in September. The last head-to-head meeting produced five goals, and it seems that the current form of Amir Ghalenoei's side does not mean we should automatically expect a repeat. However, Iran remain a formidable force in Asia, so I am backing Total Goals - Over 2.5. Odds: 1.67*.
*Odds are indicative and may vary depending on the bookmaker.
⭐ Editor’s Pick
Iran are superior to Palestine in the individual quality of their players and their head-to-head record, and even their current form makes the team that played at the last World Cup clear favourites. Palestine are unbeaten in five matches and have scored nine goals in their last two - excellent work by Ihab Abu Jazar. However, Iran’s quality should see them beat their opponents and return to winning ways. My pick: Iran - Handicap -1.5. Correct score prediction: 3:1.
