Teams Preview

Jordan

Jordan are back to the 2027 FIBA World Cup Asian and Oceanian qualifiers with a home assignment against Iraq. Both sides locked horns in the 2025 AsiaCup qualifiers where Jordan knocked them out in the group stage. Uganda dropped two of three group stage games in AsiaCup. In World Cup qualifiers, they made a winning start as they outperformed Syria 68-90. It’s an eay scenario for Jordan to cross the line. 

Jordan qualified for the FIBA World Cup 2023 but lost the group stage encounters. During the qualification for the 2027 event, they are in good form. Jordan averaged 80.8 points in AfroBasket and 58.6 points. Meanwhile, they rank third in steals per game (11.3). However, they averaged 14.7 turnovers per game. The hosts were shooting 32.4% from the floor and 17.5% from the three-point line. 

Two players reached double figures for Jordan in the previous game. Jalen Harris notched up 18 points. Duverioglu added a double-double with 17 points and 10 rebounds. Jalen Haris could be a player to watch out for. The guard averaged 26.8 points in the world cup qualifiers and continued his top form in the competition. We are backing Haris to score a double-double in the home fixture against Iraq. 

Iraq

Iraq will be in action for the crucial showdown with Jordan in the 2027 FIBA World Cup Asian Qualifiers. They are eliminated from the qualification after losing all five games in the tournament. Three teams will go to the next round and its finalised. Jordan had the last laugh when they last met Iraq in the AsiaCup last year. Iraq lost all their group stage games and suffered an exit. 

They failed to qualify for the 2023 FIBA World Cup so they were optimistic to clear the qualifying round this time. Meanwhile, the visitors made a tough start to the campaign with a 68-94 loss to Iraq. Iraq averaged 69.8 points on 41.7% shooting which was ninth-best. Their offensive strength put them under the worst teams in Asia. 

Iraq ranked fourth in rebounds (45.2). They allowed 21.4% three-point shooting against the opposition. As we mentioned earlier, Egypt rely on their starters with great offensive talent. Ramon Galloway is the star player in the side. The guard averaged 14.0 points per game in the tournament. He could also be an offensive threat in the upcoming fixture. He has been a consistent player in the international assignments. We back him to be a top-scorer with 15 points in the road contest.
