Kuwait vs Singapore

Al Nahyan Stadium is the venue as underperforming Kuwait and in-form Singapore square off in an international friendly.

Despite getting their international action in 2022 underway with a morale-boosting 2-0 triumph over Libya, Kuwait head into proceedings amid a rotten patch of form. Since beating Libya in January, the ‘Blue Wave’ have gone winless in their last three internationals (D1, L2), with both defeats in that span yielding an identical 2-0 scoreline. Now back at the Al Nahyan Stadium, Kuwait will be looking to improve their sub-par five-game home record (W1, D2, L2). Low scoring has been a common theme in Kuwait’s recent home fixtures. Their last five home outings have all featured under 2.5 goals, with three of them seeing one or both sides fail to get on the scoresheet.

Against this backdrop, two of Kuwait’s last four home meetings with Singapore have contained precisely four goals, underlining the potential for an enthralling encounter. Singapore’s alarming defensive record on the road may well bolster that prospect, as the ‘Lions’ are without a clean sheet in their last nine away matches. With seven of those nine games seeing Singapore concede 2+ goals, head coach Takayuki Nishigaya has every reason to be concerned about his team’s prospects in Abu Dhabi. Indeed, Singapore have suffered five defeats in six away outings since the start of the last calendar year, barring a 2-1 win over the Philippines in December 2021 (W1).
