Team News
Wales
Wales will have a couple of selection dilemma before the clash against Iran. Kieffer Moore, who came as a substitution against USA made a big impact in the game and it will be interesting to see if he can start for the side against Iran.
Ethan Ampadu is having an ankle issue and Joe Allen may come into consideration for a substitute appearance incase Ampadu is not 100% fit.
Iran
Iran will be without Alireza Beiranvand after the footballer suffered a head injury against England. Hossein Hosseini is likely to replace him.
