The upcoming AFC Asian Cup qualifier between Laos and Vietnam promises excitement as Vietnam seeks to maintain their qualification hopes. History favors Vietnam, who have won all previous eight encounters against Laos, including a recent 5-0 victory. Laos has struggled, winning just one of their last 11 games, while Vietnam displays formidable form, securing nine victories out of ten. An away win with over 2.5 goals is the favored outcome, highlighting Vietnam's offensive strength and Laos's defensive vulnerabilities.

Laos vs Vietnam Predictions


Vietnam can maintain their AFC Asian Cup qualification hopes with another high-scoring success on Wednesday. An away win with over 2.5 goals is my best bet, while I also like the chances of four or more goals scored. 

Stats


  • Laos lost 5 of their last 6 matches
  • Laos have seen over 2.5 goals in 8 of their last 9 matches
  • Laos have seen over 3.5 goals in their last 3 matches against Vietnam
  • Vietnam won 9 of their last 10 matches
  • Vietnam have seen over 2.5 goals in 7 of their last 8 matches
  • Vietnam have seen over 3.5 goals in 3 of their last 4 matches

Head to Head


Laos and Vietnam will meet for the ninth time on Wednesday. Vietnam won all eight previous encounters, including a 5-0 victory earlier this year. 

Laos Form


Laos face their penultimate fixture in AFC Qualification Group F with just three points on the board from four games completed. Hyeok-Jun Ha's side slipped to a 5-1 defeat in Malaysia in their most recent qualifier last month. 

The hosts find themselves third in the section, six points behind Vietnam ahead of Wednesday's matchup at Lao National Stadium KM16.

The Southeast Asian nation endured a largely miserable year, losing seven and winning just one of 11 games played. Laos leaked 31 goals in those matches, averaging just under three goals conceded per fixture. 

Laos Squad & Team News


Goalkeepers: Xaysavath Souvanhansok, Kop Lokphathip and Anoulak Vilaphone
Defenders: Anantaza Siphongphan, Phoutthavong Sangvilay, Phetdavanh Somsanith, At Viengkham, Sengdaovy Hanthavong, Xeedee Phomsavanh, Xayasith Singsavang, Khammanh Thapaseuth, Oun Phetvongsa and Chittakone Vannachone

Hyeok-Jun Ha has a 23-man squad available for selection on Wednesday. Captain Bounphachan Bounkong is expected to win his 31st international cap. 

Vietnam Form


Vietnam continue their bid for AFC Asian Cup qualification after back-to-back victories in October's international break. The Golden Star Warriors eased to a 3-1 win against Nepal before a fine 1-0 road victory against the same opponents. 

With two games to play in Group F, the Vietnamese sit second in the section, three points behind leaders Malaysia. 

Kim Sang-sik's men have been in excellent form over the past 12 months, securing 11 victories while losing just one of 13 international fixtures since December 2024. Placed 111th in the FIFA rankings, Vietnam sit 77 places ahead of their hosts. 

Vietnam Squad & Team News


Goalkeepers: Dang Van Lam, Nguyen Dinh Trieu and Nguyen Van Viet
Defenders: Do Duy Manh (captain), Bui Tien Dung, Nguyen Thanh Chung, Pham Xuan Manh, Phan Tuan Tai, Truong Tien Anh, Nguyen Van Vi, Cao Pendant Quang Vinh and Khong Minh Gia Bao
Midfielders: Nguyen Quang Hai (vice-captain), Nguyen Hoang Duc (vice-captain), Nguyen Hai Long, Le Pham Thanh Long, Le Van Do and Tran Bao Toan

Kim Sang-sik named a 23-man squad for Vietnam's trip to Laos. Experienced midfielder Nguyen Quang Hai is tipped to win his 77th cap this week.

Tran Baao Toan is one of three uncapped players included in the Vietnamese selection.

Predicted Lineups


Laos (4-3-3)

Xaysavath Souvanhansok; Anantaza Siphongphan, Phoutthavong Sangvilay, Phetdavanh Somsanith, At Viengkham; Chanthavixay Khounthoumphone, Damoth Thongkhamsavath, Sonesanith Phommachanh; Bounphachan Bounkong, Chony Waenpaseuth, Anousone Xaypanya

Verdict

Vietnam are a much stronger side, and given their current form, should have little difficulty in easing past the hosts on Wednesday. An away win with over 2.5 goals is my best bet at Lao National Stadium KM16.
