India, who managed to share points with Asian Champions Qatar with a goalless scoreline in their recent away match of the ongoing World Cup Qualifiers, have two back-to-back away challenges, where the first one is against a 149th ranked team Afghanistan on Thursday.

The Blue Tigers, who are winless in the tournament, lie a spot below the Afghans, who have 3 points in their kitty in comparison to India’s 2.
The 106th ranked side started their campaign with a heartbreaking loss to Oman even after leading by a goal till the 81st minute of the match. In their next game, they did well to hold Qatar to a goalless draw in an away game, but their last month’s disappointing 1-1 draw against Bangladesh at the Salt Lake Stadium in Kolkata ruined their previous efforts.
Igor Stimac’s side desperately need six points from the next two games in order to stand a chance and the astro turf at Central Republican Stadium — Afghanistan’s home ground — will make things more difficult for the guests.
Meanwhile, Afghanistan, who suffered a humiliating loss of 0-6 and 0-3 to Qatar and Oman, respectively, have won one game against Bangladesh. However, the Afghans will definitely be feeling pressure before their clash with the Sunil Chhetri-led Indian side.
We predict 2-0 win for India.
