Vietnam - Indonesia team strength correlation: Favorable but don't underestimate the opponent's performance

Is the Vietnamese team really superior to Indonesia in many aspects before the confrontation in the third match of Group B of the ASEAN Cup 2024?

The strength correlation between Vietnam and Indonesia in ASEAN Cup 2024

Despite playing quite successfully recently, the FIFA ranking of the Indonesian team is still lower than that of Vietnam (125 compared to 116). At the ASEAN Cup 2024, Indonesia brought a young squad, so it is understandable that their squad value was only 3.58, only half of the Vietnamese team. The Vietnamese team has an average age of 27.1 compared to 20.1 for Indonesia. Obviously, the Vietnamese team has much more experience than its opponent. This is a big advantage for coach Kim Sang Sik's team. The Indonesian team is also superior to Vietnam in many aspects thanks to the voice of history and recent performance. First of all, the support of the past. In the 30 previous meetings, Indonesia was better with 11 wins and 11 draws. The Indonesian team is also in better form than Vietnam with 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses in the last 5 matches. Meanwhile, the Vietnamese team lost 3, drew 1 and lost 1 in the last 5 matches. Given these correlations, experts believe that the Vietnamese team has a chance to surpass Indonesia, but don't be subjective with the opponent's performance. The match between Vietnam and Indonesia will take place at 8:00 p.m. today, December 15, broadcast live on VTV2, VTV Can Tho and FPT Play.

The ASEAN Cup will take place from December 8, 2024, with the final match taking place on January 5, 2025. The tournament will feature 10 teams from Southeast Asia. Group A includes Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Cambodia and Timor Leste. Group B includes Vietnam, Indonesia, Philippines, Myanmar and Laos.

In the group stage, the teams will play a round-robin, with each team playing 2 home matches and 2 away matches. At the end of the group stage, the top 2 teams in each group will advance to the semi-finals. The semi-finals and final will be played over 2 home and away matches. In the semi-finals, the away goals format will be applied. In the 2024 ASEAN Cup, the Vietnamese team's goal is to reach the final. The Vietnamese team will face strong competition from Indonesia, Thailand, and Malaysia.
