Oman vs Kuwait Recent Form
Oman need a stronger response after Indonesia beat them 3-0 in Jakarta. The result exposed early defensive gaps and a missed penalty from Al-Ghassani, but it also gives Queiroz a clear selection question before another Gulf opponent.
Kuwait arrive with a better mood after drawing 2-2 with Thailand. Al-Jassar and Eid Al-Rashidi scored after halftime, and that comeback showed Pizzi still has midfield runners who can change a match even when Kuwait start slowly.

Oman vs Kuwait Head to Head Record
Oman hold the recent H2H edge after two World Cup qualifying wins and one Gulf Cup draw. They beat Kuwait 4-0 in Muscat in October 2024, drew 1-1 in December, then won 1-0 away in March 2025.
Kuwait need to change the central duel to improve that pattern. Oman have controlled too many second balls in recent meetings, so Pizzi’s midfield has to support attacks faster and stop Kuwait from defending too deep.
Oman vs Kuwait Team News
Oman and Kuwait both played on June 5, so team selection should reflect recovery, tactical correction and minutes management. The official lineups are expected closer to kickoff, with both coaches able to rotate after one demanding friendly earlier in the window.
Oman should prioritize a sharper attacking shape after the Indonesia loss. Kuwait should keep the late attacking energy from the Thailand draw while tightening the spaces they allowed before halftime. Neither team has qualified for World Cup 2026, so this friendly is mainly about rebuilding and preparation.
Kuwait Team News
Kuwait travel after a 2-2 draw with Thailand on June 5, when Pizzi’s side recovered from two goals down in Pathum Thani. Nasser Al-Jassar scored soon after halftime, and Eid Al-Rashidi equalized after Kuwait increased pressure through wide deliveries and second balls.
That comeback gives Kuwait a better platform than the final qualifying table suggested. Pizzi still needs cleaner defensive spacing because Thailand found room before halftime, but Kuwait showed enough late-game energy to worry Oman if Shabib Al-Khaldi and Yousef Nasser get early service.
Oman Team News
Oman come in after a 3-0 friendly defeat to Indonesia in Jakarta on June 5. Carlos Queiroz will want a sharper response because Oman conceded early, missed a first-half penalty and struggled to turn late chances into pressure on the scoreboard.
Queiroz still has a useful spine through Ibrahim Al-Mukhaini, Harib Al-Saadi, Jameel Al-Yahmadi, Abdul Rahman Al-Mushaifri and Muhsen Al-Ghassani. Oman beat Kuwait twice across the last two World Cup qualifying meetings, so the key selection question is whether Queiroz keeps the same attacking core or freshens the wide roles.
