Thirty-six nations are split into nine groups of four for the second round of the 2026 World Cup 2026 AFC qualifiers. A home-away round-robin format will be used for the matches between the teams in each group.
The top two finishers in Group A advance to the third round of the FIFA World Cup qualifiers, with India drawn alongside Asian champions Afghanistan, Qatar, and Kuwait.
The best teams in the group will receive direct entry into the 2027 AFC Asian Cup, which will take place in Saudi Arabia, as well as a spot in the third round of the 2026 World Cup qualifying process.
Following their victories in the Intercontinental Cup and the SAFF Championship in June and July, India’s performance hasn’t exactly gone as planned. The fact is that Stimac’s team has lost two SAFF Championship games against Kuwait and has really gone six games without winning in regulation time.
In addition, Kuwait and India are expected to contend for the second slot in the group, with Qatar being the overwhelming favourites to win the FIFA rankings, making this match extremely important.
India, captained by Sunil Chhetri, is rated second in Group A (102), behind Qatar (61). Here is all you need to know about the fixture.
