Wales had a difficult World Cup debut. Although it was a happy occasion since they were playing their first game after 64 years away, the game suffered a lot with the United States being much superior and deserving victory more. That’s why the 1-1 draw ended up being a good result, although they certainly need a resounding victory to come up with a good chance against England.

Iran had a forgettable start to this World Cup. It was a 6-2 loss to England, in a game in which they couldn’t do anything. If you want to have any chance of advancing to the next round, you must win this game. Even a draw would not help them since their goal difference is very negative.
