Our Uzbekistan vs Syria prediction for this Friendly International match on October 1, 2026, gives Uzbekistan a 45% chance of winning. The draw probability is 35%, while Syria has a 20% chance of causing an upset. Kick-off is at 15:00 local time.
Uzbekistan's recent form is poor, with four losses in their last five matches (W, L, L, L, L). The only win came against Iran (3-1) on September 24, 2026. Defeats include a 3-1 loss to Congo DR, a 5-0 thrashing by Portugal, a 3-1 reverse to Colombia, and a 2-1 loss to the Netherlands. This run highlights defensive frailties, conceding 14 goals in those five games.
Syria's form is more resilient: three draws, one loss, and one win in their last five (D, D, D, L, W). They drew 1-1 with Jordan, 0-0 with Bahrain (twice), lost 4-1 to Belarus, and beat Afghanistan 5-1. Syria have been hard to beat, with three clean sheets in those five outings, suggesting a well-organized defense.
Uzbekistan and Syria have met three times, all in Friendly Internationals. Uzbekistan lead with 1 win and 2 draws; Syria are yet to win. The most recent meeting, on June 11, 2019, ended 2-0 to Uzbekistan. The two earlier matches (both on September 6, 2018) finished 1-1. Historically, Uzbekistan have the edge, but draws are common.
Based on bookmaker odds, team form, head-to-head record, and home advantage, we calculate the following win probabilities:
Bookmakers' odds imply a higher home win probability (around 52%), but Uzbekistan's recent poor form and Syria's stubborn draws force a significant adjustment. Home advantage and historical dominance still make Uzbekistan the most likely winner, but a draw is a very realistic outcome.
Bookmakers heavily favor Uzbekistan. The best available 1X2 odds are:
These odds reflect Uzbekistan's status as the stronger side on paper, but the wide draw odds suggest value for those expecting a tight contest. Our prediction: Uzbekistan are the more likely winners, but given their leaky defense and Syria's recent resilience, backing the draw or a low-scoring affair could be smart betting tips. The match outcome is far from a foregone conclusion.
