Iran unchanged as they look to beat Bosnia and Herzegovina
Iran have named an unchanged lineup for their crunch clash against eliminated Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Iran coach Carlos Queiroz has named an unchanged lineup for his side's must-win against eliminated Bosnia and Herzegovina. Team Melli need a victory and hope Argentina beat Nigeria to stand any chance of making the knockout stages for the first time in their history.
Meanwhile, Bosnia, who are just looking to salvage some pride after defeats in their opening two group games, have made a handful of changes and a formation adjustment. Coach Safet Sušić has replaced right-back Mensur Mujdža with Avdija Vršajević, while Sead Kolašinac returns to his position on the left of the defence. Attacking midfielder Zvjezdan Misimović and wide forwards Izet Hajrović and Senad Lulić are out, with central midfielders Tino-Sven Sušić, Anel Hadžić and striker Vedad Ibišević replacing them to form what looks like a 4-3-1-2.
