Indonesia vs Bangladesh Predictions & Tips - Hosts Backed to Win to Nil in ASEAN Cup
Indonesia face Bangladesh in their third ASEAN Cup Group A match on Thursday. Indonesia have impressed defensively with two straight clean sheets and are backed to continue their form, especially against a Bangladesh side that has failed to score in their last two group games and lost four of five recent matches. Head coach John Herdman’s squad will be missing Thom Haye due to suspension, but the hosts are still strong favorites. The key prediction is Indonesia to win to nil, likely securing their place in the final against Thailand.

Indonesia vs Bangladesh Predictions
Indonesia and Bangladesh meet on Thursday in their third ASEAN Cup Group A fixture.
Indonesia have kept clean sheets in both group games, while Bangladesh have yet to score.
I have my stake on the hosts to win to nil.
Indonesia Tipped to Win to Nil
- Indonesia kept a clean sheet in 5 of their last 8 matches
- Indonesia won 5 of their last 8 matches
- Bangladesh failed to score in 4 of their last 5 matches
- Bangladesh lost 4 of their last 5 matches
Indonesia Lead Bangladesh in H2H Record
Indonesia and Bangladesh have met on two occasions since 2000. Indonesia won one game, while the other finished as a draw.
Their most recent meeting ended goalless in a friendly in Bandung in June 2022.
Ten-Man Indonesia Hold Malaysia
Indonesia come into Thursday’s clash after showing plenty of resilience in a goalless draw against Malaysia on Monday.
Despite Thom Haye’s dismissal after 37 minutes, John Herdman’s side could have secured all three points. Indonesia had an early Justin Hubner goal ruled out, while Elkan Baggott struck the post before the interval.
While registering only 33% possession, the Red and White finished the contest with more efforts on goal (11-9).
A solid defence has been the foundation for the Red and White’s strong form since June. Indonesia won five of their last eight games, with clean sheets achieved in four of those victories.
Indonesia and Malaysia are level on four points at the top of Group A. A win over Bangladesh on Thursday could send the hosts into the final against Thailand, depending on Malaysia’s result against Singapore.
Bangladesh Search for First Group Goal
Bangladesh make the trip to Jakarta after a narrow 1-0 defeat in their ASEAN Cup, Group A clash against Singapore on Monday.
Harhys Stewart's first-half header secured a deserved win for Gavin Lee’s side.
Singapore created the better chances on Monday, registering ten shots to Bangladesh’s two.
Thomas Dooley's side can no longer reach the final after a 3-0 reversal against Malaysia last week. Arif Aiman scored twice in the opening half before Bergson added a third after the break.
Bangladesh have now failed to score while losing four of five friendlies played in the last year. The Bengal Tigers' only success was

“I have huge respect for the supporters. It was incredible to see the stadium tonight,” Herdman told a news conference after the match at Jakarta’s Gelora Bung Karno Main Stadium on Monday.
