Indonesia faces many disadvantages

Indonesia is currently dominating Vietnam in terms of head-to-head record. Specifically, the team from the archipelago has won all 3 recent encounters. Furthermore, Indonesia is often considered the "nemesis" of Vietnamese football when they can win even when they are not playing well. But in this match, all the disadvantages are on Indonesia's side. Coach Shin Tae Yong almost lost all of his naturalized stars because foreign clubs did not agree to release them for the ASEAN Cup. Without most of his naturalized stars, Coach Shin decided to call up most of the players in the U22 age group. In the 2024 ASEAN Cup, Indonesia has an average age of only 21, while Vietnam is in the "oldest" group with an average age of 27.2. The first 2 matches have shown that Indonesia is much weaker than when they played in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. Coach Shin and his team only beat Myanmar 1-0, and were even held to an unbelievable 3-3 draw by Laos. The inexperience of Indonesian players is even more challenging with an unfavorable match schedule. Before coming to Vietnam, Indonesia had to visit Myanmar on December 9, then return home to welcome Laos on December 12. Indonesia had to play 3 consecutive matches in just 1 week, taking place in 3 other countries. It is understandable why coach Shin Tae Yong complained about the match schedule. Meanwhile, Vietnam has the advantage in terms of physical strength as they had the second match off.

Will there be more cards?

With many advantages, Vietnam is given a handicap of 1 1/4 (1.25) for the whole match and a handicap of 0.5 in the first half. With Indonesia's current level, this is a handicap within Vietnam's reach. Coach Kim Sang Sik and his team have not shown many positive signs, but having too many advantages will help them dominate this match. On the other hand, the over/under handicap for the whole match is 2.5 goals and in the first half is 1 goal. This is also a fairly comfortable handicap when both teams do not have a solid defense.

The over/under card handicap for this match is 3.5. This is an ideal handicap whenever Indonesia is in a weak position. The team from the archipelago is famous for its tough playing style, committing brutal fouls against stronger opponents. Being at a disadvantage will put Indonesia at greater risk of receiving many cards in this match. 3/4 of the most recent matches between Vietnam and Indonesia have given over/under cards. Expert's choice: Vietnam handicap Indonesia 1.25 goals for the whole match: choose Vietnam Vietnam handicap Indonesia 0.5 goals for the first half: choose Vietnam Over/under 2.5 goals for the whole match: choose over Over/under 1 goal for the first half: choose over Over/under 3.5 cards: choose over Prediction : Vietnam wins 4-1.
