Vietnam take on Laos at the New Laos National Stadium on Wednesday in the 2027 AFC Asian Cup qualifiers. With nine points from four games, the Golden Star Warriors are currently second in Group F, trailing leaders Malaysia by three points with two games to go. Any result here for Vietnam besides a win would seal their fate should Malaysia beat Nepal in the other match. Or we could have an epic showdown between Vietnam and Malaysia on the final day of the qualifiers in March 2026, with the former needing a win by five or more goals to leapfrog the Malay Tigers on goal difference. Ranked 111th in the world, Kim Sang-sik’s side are looking to reach their sixth Asian Cup and a third edition in a row. A squad of 23 players have been called-up for this month’s fixture against Laos, including key forward Nguyễn Tiến Linh who has 26 goals from 64 games. Nguyễn Xuân Son, who has seven goals for the side from five appearances, also makes the cut. Laos, though, have been knocked out from the race, collecting only three points from four qualifying fixtures, gained from a narrow 2-1 win over Nepal on matchday two.
