World Cup qualifiers: Qatar vs India Preview, Head-To-Head, Lineup, Live Streaming and Telecast

India will take on Qatar on road for their last match of the World Cup qualifiers second round on June 11. They met Qatar at home for the first leg in this round back in late November last year. It was a brutal defeat for the Blue Tigers who will be desperate to not see a repeat of their past result.

This is also the first match for the Blue Tigers without Sunil Chhetri leading them. One of the best players in India's history played his last match in the Indian jersey a few days ago at home against Kuwait which ended in a goalless draw.

Qatar vs India Preview

India will face Qatar on the road for the last match of their World Cup qualifiers second round game. They met another time in the first leg back in November last year. Qatar overpowered the Blue Tigers in every possible way which saw India lose the match by a humiliating 0-3 margin.

India's last match against Kuwait was a do-or-die situation where a win would've seen them solidify their place in the third round. However, that game ended in a goalless draw. This means India will at least have to either win or draw against Qatar.

However, if they draw, they will have to keep looking at their neighbours to be able to progress. Additionally, getting either a win or a draw against the powerhouse Qatar especially without their captain and ace Sunil Chhetri will be almost an impossible task.
