Vietnam lost 4-2 to Japan on Matchday One while Indonesia were defeated 3-1 by Iraq.
Advantage Vietnam
Vietnam are undefeated in their last six internationals against Indonesia (W3 D3), keeping a clean sheet in each of their last four encounters; though, this will be the first time that the teams have met at the AFC Asian Cup.
Hot and cold
Vietnam have scored two goals in three of their last four group stage games at the AFC Asian Cup but have gone on to lose three of those matches (W1); in fact, they’ve scored at least one goal in 11 of their 13 group stage games in the history of the tournament but won only twice in that term (D2 L9).
In need of a win
Indonesia have lost their last three games at the AFC Asian Cup including a 3-1 defeat to Iraq on Matchday One of the current tournament; though, they have scored at least one goal in four of their last five games at the tournament after finding the back of the net in only one of their previous six games.
Improvement needed
Indonesia had a passing accuracy of 70% on Matchday One, the lowest of any
team in Group D and the only one of the four teams in the group below 80% (Vietnam – ۸۱%).
Pass merchant
Vietnam’s Nguyen Thái Son had a 98% accuracy from his 59 passes against Japan, the highest passing accuracy of any player in Group D to attempt at least 20 passes.
