Although Saudi Arabia's performance at the previous Asian Cup was disappointing, they remain one of the best Asian teams. They comfortably finished among the two best teams in the previous round of the World Cup qualifications and will be among the main candidates for the top two places in the third stage, too.
Saudi Arabia won only two of the last six matches. In the previous game, they lost 2-1 at home against Jordan. However, everything was decided before that match, so the head coach decided to give a chance to a few reserve players. In the upcoming game against Indonesia, we should see the best Saudi Arabian players starting.
Indonesia's only appearance at the World Cup was in 1938. Now, we will have 48 teams at the main football event, but it still seems unlikely for the East Asian country to qualify.
Indonesia played well recently, as they lost only one of the last five matches. In the previous game, they won 2-0 at home against the Philippines. The home side controlled the match from the start and dominantly secured another victory.
Saudi Arabia vs Indonesia pick: Under 2.5 goals
Saudi Arabia allowed only five goals in the last 13 matches. On the other hand, Indonesia Indonesia conceded only two goals in the previous five games. Under 2.5 goals should be the best bet for this tie.

Saudi Arabia team news
The leader of the Saudi Arabian team is surely Salem Al-Dawsari. The legendary Al-Hilal winger is already 33 years old but still plays at a high level. Besides him, we should mention important Firas Al-Buraikan (Al-Ahli), Abdulrahman Ghareeb (Al-Nassr), and Saud Abdulhamid (AS Roma).

Indonesia team news
Indonesia have players from around the globe. The best player is probably Thom Haye, who is currently without a club, but he had a very good previous season with four goals and four assists for Heerenveen. The other interesting Indonesian players are Calvin Verdonk (NEC Nijmegen), Sandy Walsh (Mechelen), and Jay Idzes (Venezia).
