Team Reviews
Vietnam U23 are entering this AFC U23 Asian Cup Qualifier Group C match at a neutral venue in Vietnam with strong momentum, leading the group after a 2-0 win over Bangladesh on September 3, 2025, where Nguyễn Phi Hoàng and Nguyễn Đình Bắc scored. Their recent form is excellent, with four wins and one draw in their last five matches, including a 1-0 victory over Indonesia in the 2025 ASEAN U-23 Mandiri Cup final. They’ve scored 10 goals and conceded two, averaging 2.0 goals scored and 0.4 conceded per game. Playing at a home-like neutral venue, Vietnam are unbeaten in their last five competitive matches, with goalkeeper Quan Văn Chuẩn keeping three clean sheets. Coach Hoàng Anh Tuấn’s 4-3-3 relies on Khuất Văn Khang’s leadership and Bùi Vĩ Hào’s finishing. No major injuries are reported, so Vietnam will aim to dominate possession and exploit Yemen’s defense with their high press and passionate support.
Yemen U23 are second in Group C, coming off a 1-0 win over Bangladesh on September 6, 2025, with Mohammed Esam Al Awami scoring in stoppage time. Their recent form is solid, with three wins and two losses in their last five, scoring eight goals and conceding four, averaging 1.6 goals scored and 0.8 conceded per game. However, their away form is weaker, with one win in their last three road games, including a 1-0 loss to Vietnam in 2023 qualifiers. Coach Mauricio Arias’s 4-4-2 depends on Al Awami’s attacking threat and goalkeeper Mohammed Aman’s shot-stopping. No major injuries are noted, but Yemen will need to stay compact and rely on counters to challenge Vietnam’s attacking intensity at a hostile venue.
Head to Head
Vietnam U23 and Yemen U23 have met once recently, with Vietnam winning 1-0 in the 2023 AFC U23 Asian Cup qualifiers on September 9, 2023, thanks to a late goal by V. H. Bùi. In that match, Vietnam dominated possession (56%) and corners (8-4), while Yemen struggled to create chances, per Sofascore. At neutral or Vietnam-hosted venues, this result gives Vietnam a psychological edge. Matches involving these teams average 1.5 goals, with both teams scoring in 0% of their prior encounter, suggesting a low-scoring, tight contest. Yemen’s defensive resilience kept it close in 2023, but Vietnam’s home-like advantage and form make them favorites.
Prediction
Vietnam U23’s strong form, attacking depth, and home-like neutral venue make them favorites against a Yemen side with a solid but less potent attack. I predict a 2-0 win for Vietnam, with Bùi Vĩ Hào or Nguyễn Đình Bắc likely scoring, while Văn Chuẩn keeps a clean sheet. Vietnam’s win probability is around 68%, reflecting their 2023 victory and Yemen’s weaker away record. Expect Vietnam to control possession (around 55%) and corners (8-10 projected), with Yemen’s counters through Al Awami posing a limited threat. The game should see Vietnam’s wingers exploit Yemen’s flanks, building on their 2-0 Bangladesh win, for a comfortable victory.
