Oman will be looking to make it back to back victories at the end of the Asian World Cup Qualifying campaign when they welcome a struggling China to Sulta Qaboos Sports Complex in Muscat in their final qualifying game on Tuesday night with kickoff at 19:00.
Both sides have already been eliminated from the fray with Oman claiming 11 points nine matches to sit fourth in Group B, four points behind third placed Australia, while China have only claimed six points from their nine matches and sit fifth with five points behind their Tuesday hosts.
They will therefore be looking to end their qualifying campaigns in a style with Oman looking for a second consecutive win on the bounce in Group B, while China will look to end six-match winless run in the group.
They both head into in the match off impressive displays in their last qualifying matches with Oman overcoming Vietnam in a hard fought 1-0 win, while China did well to hold Saudi Arabia to a 1-1 draw and we expect them to go harmer and tongs on each other on Tuesday.
Oman vs China head to head
Both sides have met in three encounters since 2006 with either claiming one victory and one match ended in a draw.
