AFC Asian Cup Joint Qualification: With their qualification spot on the line following the draw with Kuwait, the Indian men's football team will face a strong Qatar side in a crucial second-round Group A qualifying match of AFC FIFA World Cup on Tuesday at the Jassim bin Hamad stadium here.

Qatar have already qualified for the next round and will comfortably top the group, but India are in a race with Afghanistan and Kuwait for the second spot. India are hoping to make their maiden entry into the third round of World Cup Qualifying.

For this fixture, India will also play without the services of their legendary forward, Sunil Chhetri, a name synonymous with Indian football. Chhetri played his final game in the previous match against Kuwait at the Salt Lake Stadium in Kolkata.
