Heading into the final day of Group A action at the FIFA Arab Cup™, the section standings are certainly not how most would have had them looking. With just one point apiece, hosts Qatar and 2021 runners-up Tunisia are staring down the barrel of a stunning early exit.
| Group A | P | W | D | L | GF | GA | GD | Pts | Form | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 |  Palestine | 2 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 3 | 2 | 1 | 4 | — | |
| 2 |  Syria | 2 | 1 | 1 | 0 | 2 | 1 | 1 | 4 | — | |
| 3 |  Tunisia | 2 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 2 | 3 | -1 | 1 | — | |
| 4 |  Qatar | 2 | 0 | 1 | 1 | 1 | 2 | -1 | 1 | — | |
Only a win in that pair’s direct confrontation in Al Khor will possibly keep their hopes alive as section pacesetters Syria and Palestine clash simultaneously in Al Rayyan.
Victory for either will secure top spot while a draw will see both progress, with Palestine as the group winners.
