The Uzbekistan national football team will play a friendly match against Iran on September 24. The game will take place at the Istiklol Stadium in Fergana, kicking off at 19:00 local time.

The Uzbek players will wear an all-white kit, while the goalkeeper will be in green. This choice reflects the team's traditional style.

Historically, Uzbekistan and Iran have met 18 times. Iran has won 10 of those matches, five ended in draws, and Uzbekistan has only three victories. The goal difference also favors Iran, 16:7.

The last time the two teams met was in 2025 in the final of an international friendly tournament in Al Ain. The match ended level in regulation time, and Uzbekistan defeated Iran in a penalty shootout to win the tournament. That victory provided a significant psychological boost for the Uzbek side.

Ahead of today's match, the Uzbek team has no injured or suspended players. The coaching staff is expected to test new tactical formations. Iran, meanwhile, has brought a strong squad.
