China vs Australia prediction and betting tips on March 25, 2025
Game Prediction
In the 8th round of the World Cup qualifying in Asia on March 25, 2025, a match will take place between the national teams of China and Australia. The guests have come for a victory to avoid failure in this cycle, but the hosts still have their own tournament objectives.
Our Prediction for the Match China vs Australia
Despite considerable investments in football, the Chinese team has only managed to qualify for the World Cup once. They failed to impress at last year's Asian Cup, leaving without a goal. They ended with scoreless draws against Tajikistan and Lebanon and narrowly lost to Qatar, exiting after the group stage. The Australians, meanwhile, are highly rated after moving from Oceania. In the same tournament, they not only reached the playoffs but also defeated Indonesia in a landslide, and led against South Korea until the 90+6 minute, though the opponent equalized through a penalty and won in extra time.
The Australians struggled after this blow. An autumn coaching change didn't help much; they ended the year with one victory and seven points. The Chinese trailed by one, although they defeated Indonesia and Bahrain amidst many losses. Still, there remained chances for success.
In 2025, the Chinese played in Saudi Arabia. Already down to ten men by halftime, they predictably lost but only 0-1. Tony Popovic's team faced Indonesia at home, achieving a bright 5-1 victory. But what if the guests had converted a penalty at the start of the match?
