The Indian national football team embarks on their AFC Asian Cup 2023 journey on January 13, 2024, facing a formidable opening challenge against perennial rivals Australia. Grouped with former champions Syria and Uzbekistan, the Blue Tigers are gearing up for a competitive battle to secure a coveted spot in the knockout stage. The India vs Australia Live Streaming in AFC Asian Cup 2023 will be available on JioCinema, while Sports 18 will broadcast the game live.
India vs Australia Preview:
As they enter their fifth Asian Cup campaign in Qatar, eyeing their second crown, Graham Arnold and his team exude confidence and belief in their ability to compete. Thirteen years will have elapsed since the last encounter between India and Australia on a football pitch, precisely on January 10, 2011, during the Asian Cup. Much has changed since then, and as another David vs Goliath matchup unfolds in this prestigious international tournament, India is optimistic for an underdog triumph this time.
Australia arrives at the Asian Cup in Qatar with a commendable run of form, marked by 13 games played since the 2022 World Cup campaign. The Socceroos boast 7 wins, 1 draw, and 5 losses in this period. In the 2022 World Cup, where they reached the Round of 16, Australia suffered only two losses, both against eventual finalists (Argentina and France). Their friendly against Mexico ended in a draw, and remarkably, they have not lost to an Asian opponent in nearly two years. The stage is set for an intense competition as both teams vie for success in the AFC Asian Cup 2023.
