Kuwait manager Radion Gacanin ‘Radan’ believes that Wednesday's World Cup Group 5 qualifier against Iran in Kuwait City is too close to call.

Kuwait suffered a 2-0 opening game defeat away to the United Arab Emirates in February while their visitors were held to a 0-0 draw at home to Syria.
“Both sides badly need a victory and that’s why I believe we have equal chances on Wednesday,” Gacanin told daily Al-Watan on Tuesday.
“We have been struggling to find the last touch in the penalty box recently; but we have worked very hard on this aspect and I firmly believe we will score against Iran,” he added.
“On the positive side, we have no injuries, the players are at the peak of their form, and home support will be an added bonus.
“With just a little bit of luck, I believe we can make it against Iran,” he concluded.
Kuwait and Iraq shared the spoils at 0-0 last week in a friendly warm-up match held on home soil, while Iran suffered a 1-0 loss away to Bahrain.
