Jordan

The team's home ground is Amman International Stadium in the capital, Amman, a modern venue with a capacity of 25,000 spectators that serves as the core stage for Jordan's home matches and major international fixtures. As a traditional powerhouse in West Asian football with deep roots in the region, Jordan has long been active on continental and global stages such as the AFC Asian Cup and FIFA World Cup qualifiers, emphasizing organized collective defending and rapid transitions in its tactical approach, with a pragmatic, compact playing style, aggressive pressing, and strong team discipline and cooperation as its defining traits.

Jordan finished bottom of their group in the World Cup, losing all three matches with no wins and no draws, scoring 3 goals and conceding 8 throughout the group stage. A high goals-against tally has been their most pressing issue, with a defensive record that averaged nearly 2. 7 goals conceded per game. In attack, Ali Olwan has shown some threat, but the team's overall scoring efficiency remains low at just one goal per game on average, making it difficult to impose sustained pressure in high-intensity contests. Defensive organization is the most urgent area Jordan need to address, and their path to advancing from the group looks extremely bleak. Whether Jordan can improve their defensive structure and sharpen their attacking conversion rate in their remaining fixtures will be the defining factor in determining their final standing at this tournament.

Jordan have gone winless in their last 6 matches with 1 draw and 5 defeats, losing all three World Cup group stage games against Austria (1-3), Algeria (1-2), and Argentina (1-3), while also falling to Switzerland (1-4) and Colombia (0-2) in pre-tournament friendlies, with their only point coming from a 2-2 draw with Nigeria. In their most recent outing on June 28, the final round of the World Cup group stage, Musa Al-Taamari found the net but Jordan were still beaten 3-1 by Argentina, leaving them with a tally of 6 goals scored and 16 conceded across those 6 matches, highlighting significant defensive and attacking concerns. Jordan's next fixture sees them travel to face Uzbekistan on January 8, 2027 at 22:00 (Beijing Time).
