In the 2026 AFC U23 Championship qualifiers, U23 Vietnam will be in the same group with U23 Singapore, U23 Yemen and U23 Bangladesh. Bangladesh is considered the weakest team in the group, and to qualify for the next round, U23 Vietnam needs to win all 3 points in this match.

According to Asian press, U23 Bangladesh currently has a fairly high-quality squad and they aim to win a ticket to the final round of the 2026 AFC U23 Championship for the first time.

To prepare for this campaign, coach Saiful Bari has called up many experienced stars with 13 players currently playing for the Bangladesh national team. But the most notable are the four naturalized Cuban players Mitchell, Tanil Salik, Fahamedul Islam and Zayan Ahmed.

This makes U23 Bangladesh full of confidence that they will create a surprise against Vietnam. Striker Sheikh Morshalin said: "We want to win all 3 matches. We came to Vietnam to win.

Everyone in the team is very excited. With many veteran players and the addition of Cuba, Salik and Zayan, we are mentally ready."

In this match, the goal of coach Kim Sang Sik and his team is to win all 3 points. However, the U23 Vietnam team must play with great concentration and caution if they do not want to pay a heavy price.
