The Asian World Cup qualification process began in 2011 with 43 national teams. Asian teams are vying for four guaranteed spots in the 2014 World Cup two from each of its qualifying groups. The third place teams in each qualifying group will go into a playoff for the right to face a country from South America for another spot at the World Cup.

The Japan vs. Australia game will draw particularly feverish interest in this round of qualifiers. Japan will be fighting to clinch the top spot of its qualifying group, while Australia hopes to muscle past Jordan for the group's second automatic-qualifying spot.
