The draw of luck put U17 Vietnam in Group I of the 2025 AFC U17 Championship qualifiers with opponents Kyrgyzstan, Yemen and Myanmar. The ticket to the next round is the goal that Hong Quang and his teammates are aiming for after 3 matches. On the opening day, U17 Vietnam will face U17 Kyrgzystan - the opponent considered the strongest.
Prediction U17 Vietnam vs U17 Kyrgzystan
Kyrzygstan has only qualified for the Asian Cup once in its history, in 2016. Since 1998, Kyrzygstan has played in the qualifying round 11 times and failed to advance 10 times. However, this is the time when this Central Asian country is trying to find its glory. Coach Igor Nikitin did not hesitate to clearly state his ambition and goal when he was in Vietnam, which was to get a ticket to the next round.
U17 Vietnam aims to win.
It is not easy to find information about youth teams at the U17 level. Unlike Myanmar, who are "familiar" and have met Vietnam in 2024, Kyrgzystan is still an unknown. However, it is the opponent's preparation process that gives coach Roland more important information.
They just lost 2-3 to U17 Hanoi in a friendly match before the tournament. Kyrgzystan showed their thoughtfulness by coming to Vietnam more than 10 days before the opening ceremony. However, it is not impossible that the opponent created a "smokescreen" in the defeat against Hanoi - where Mr. Roland used to work.
On the other side of the front line, home field is certainly a particularly important advantage for U17 Vietnam. Van Bach and his teammates are still young, their performance in each match depends a lot on their spirit. Coach Roland understands this and he constantly sends messages to fans to come to the stadium and support U17 Vietnam.
In terms of expertise, the Brazilian coach has made many notable adjustments compared to his predecessor Tran Minh Chien. The way the young team plays is more scientific, more diverse and more courageous. In terms of personnel, U17 Vietnam continues to rely on the framework of Tan Dung, Hong Quang, Thai Hoa, Thai Hieu, Van Bach and Thien Phu.
In particular, the role of the striker pair Van Bach and Thien Phu is very important. Behind them, Thai Hoa plays enthusiastically and skillfully. As long as this trio plays to their full potential, the task of scoring goals is not too difficult for U17 Vietnam. In case of stalemate, some reserve players like Nguyen Le Quang Khoi are ready to enter the field and make a difference.
Force information
Vietnam U17 has no regrettable absences. Kyrgyzstan U17's squad is complete and key players are ready to start from the start.
Prediction: U17 Vietnam 2-1 U17 Myanmar
Expected lineup:
U17 Vietnam: Thang Long, Hong Quang, Viet Anh, Tan Dung, Hong Phong, Viet Long, Thai Hoa, Hoang Khanh, Thai Hieu, Van Bach, Thien Phu.
U17 Kyrgyzstan: Kuluev, Bolotbekov, Muratbekov, Nazhimidinov, Ormonov, Talantbekov, Alisherov, Sadyrbaev, Yuldashev, Kanatov, Isakov.
