Tajikistan vs Nepal Predictions

Tajikistan should prove too good for their visitors from Nepal on Wednesday. A home win is my only choice at Republican Central Stadium

Tajikistan have won their last 3 matches against Nepal.
Nepal have lost 5 of their last 6 matches.

Head to Head

Tajikistan and Nepal have met on three previous occasions. Tajikistan won all three encounters, including a 3-0 win at this venue in 2017.

Tajikistan Form

Tajikistan come into Wednesday's international friendly fixture aiming to bounce back from consecutive defeats in October. The Crowns slipped to defeat against Syria (1-0) and the Philippines (3-0).

Despite hopes of World qualification, Gela Shekiladze's men were eliminated in the second phase earlier this year, finishing third in the section behind Saudi Arabia and Jordan.

Despite a lack of wins in recent fixtures, Tajikistan are unbeaten in 11 of their last 14 home matches (W6, D5, L3),

Tajikistan Team News

Goalkeepers: Rustam Yatimov, Daler Barotov, Oleg Baklov, Mukhriddin Khasanov

Defenders: Akhtam Nazarov, Zoir Dzhuraboyev, Manuchekhr Safarov, Vakhdat Khanonov, Tabrezi Davlatmir, Sodikjon Kurbonov

Midfielders: Parvizdzhon Umarbayev (captain), Amirbek Juraboev, Ehson Panjshanbe, Alisher Dzhalilov, Alisher Shukurov, Amadoni Kamolov, Shukhrat Elmurodov, Azizbek Khaitov

Forwards: Manuchekhr Dzhalilov, Shahrom Samiev, Shervoni Mabatshoev, Rustam Soirov, Nuriddin Khamrokulov, Daler Sharipov

Tajikistan head coach Gela Shekiladze has a 24-man squad available for Wednesday's international friendly fixture.

Buxoro midfielder Mukhammadzhon Rakhimov is a notable absentee from the selection.

Nepal Form

Nepal make the trip to Republican Central Stadium now winless in six matches after a 2-2 draw against Yemen in their most recent fixture five months ago.

Vincenzo Annese's side had lost each of their five previous World Cup qualification fixtures before June's draw in Dammam.

The Nepalese have a less than impressive away record. The Gorkhalis lost nine and won just one of 14 previous road games over the past three years.

Nepal Team News

Goalkeepers: Kiran Chemjong (captain), Deep Karki, Bishal Sunar

Defenders: Rohit Chand, Sanish Shrestha, Chhiring Lama, Bimal Panday, Abhishek Limbu, Abhishek Waiba, Anjal Maharjan, Randip Paudyal, Arik Bista, Nirajan Dhami

Midfielders: Bharat Khawas, Manish Dangi, Utsav Rai, Mani Kumar Lama, Sumit Shrestha, Rohan Karki, Arbind Rai

Forwards: Ayush Ghalan, Anjan Bista, Gillespye Jung Karki

Nepal boss Annese has a 23-man squad to choose from on Wednesday. Nirajan Dhami and Anjal Maharjan are among six uncapped players included in the selection.

Experienced defender Ananta Tamang misses out due to injury.

Verdict

Tajikistan v Nepal

Tajikistan should have enough quality to claim a morale-boosting friendly win on Wednesday. I'm backing the hosts to claim the friendly spoils at Republican Central Stadium.
