The Power of Vietnam

Up to now, the Vietnam national team is in quite stable form with 3 wins in the last 5 matches, including an important victory against Indonesia at the AFF Cup 2024. Led by coach Kim Sang Sik, the Vietnam national team has an even squad, with many outstanding stars such as Quang Hai, Van Toan and Tuan Hai. Although not showing the best performance in some recent matches, Vietnam still shows solid defense and effective attack. This is a strength that helps the Vietnam national team maintain its leading position in Southeast Asia.

Philippines form

Meanwhile, the Philippines have struggled in recent matches, with a winning rate of only 20% in the last 5 matches. Draws against Myanmar and Laos, along with defeats against strong opponents like Hong Kong and Tajikistan, show that the Philippines have not been able to find an effective tactical solution. However, with a squad full of quality naturalized players like Baldisimo, the Philippines can still cause a surprise if they know how to make the most of their opportunities. However, this team has not shown the stability needed to overcome strong opponents in the region.

The factors that decide the match

Despite playing at home, the Philippines is still not rated as highly as Vietnam, with a history of confrontation in favor of the red team (in the last 5 matches, Vietnam won 4, drew 1). However, the team of coach Kristensen Bjorn Martin cannot be underestimated. The Philippines still has the ability to create surprises if they take advantage of Vietnam's weaknesses, especially when the away team is still struggling to find an effective attack plan.

Vietnam will have to play carefully, especially in the context of central defender Bui Tien Dung being injured, and players like Hai Long also having physical problems. However, with superior squad quality and more stable performance, Vietnam has a better chance of winning this match.

Football commentary

Although the Philippines may have a hard time defeating Vietnam, this will not be an easy match. Vietnam will need to continue to promote its defensive strengths and improve its attacking ability if it wants to maintain its top position in the group. This match will be an opportunity for both teams to assert their strength and at the same time determine more clearly their ability to go far in the AFF Cup 2024.

Score prediction: 1-2. This will be a difficult but worthy victory for coach Kim Sang Sik and his team.
