Vietnam vs Pakistan Prediction, H2H Stats & Statistical Bets 2 October 2026
In August, Vietnam won the ASEAN Championship, beating Thailand in the final. The rematch came a month later at the ASEAN FIFA Cup and ended a 27-match unbeaten run. The path to gold is now closed, but a draw with Pakistan will be enough for Kim Sang-sik's side to secure a place in the bronze-medal match.
Head-to-head statistics Vietnam - Pakistan
Vietnam Team Overview
The opening round brought Vietnam a one-goal victory over the Philippines, but it came at a cost. Nguyen Xuan Son picked up a hamstring injury and was forced to leave the squad. Over the summer he had shared the ASEAN Championship top scorer award with Nguyen Dinh Bac. The regulations do not allow a replacement: the only addition permitted mid-tournament is a goalkeeper. Without him, Vietnam failed to score in their next match. Nguyen Quang Hai and Nguyen Thanh Trung had already been ruled out through injury before the tournament began.
Match Results: Vietnam
Pakistan Team Overview
Pakistan - ranked 198th in the FIFA rankings - entered the tournament as a replacement for China, who withdrew. Their opening match went as expected: the current group leaders beat Nolberto Solano's side 4-0. The second round brought a surprise, though: Pakistan were 2-0 down to the Philippines at half-time. After Solano made two substitutions, they fought back. Ali Akbar Khan pulled one back - his first international goal - and Pakistan levelled. Even with that point, they sit bottom of the group on goal difference. Only a win will keep their bronze-final hopes alive.

Prediction for the 1st half
Vietnam have scored in 12 of their last 13 home matches, while Pakistan have conceded a first-half goal in 6 of their last 7 away games. We expect the favourites to be leading at the break. The bet is Vietnam to win the first half.
Total Goals Prediction
Vietnam have failed to score more than two goals in six consecutive matches. Their home record is no more impressive: 16 goals scored across their last ten home matches. The risk lies in Pakistan's defence, which has conceded 18 goals in their last ten away matches. Even so, we are not expecting Vietnam to score more than two. The bet is Vietnam Team Total - Under 2.5.
Correct Score Prediction
Based on statistics and probability distribution, the algorithm identifies three most likely scorelines: 1-0 (13.6%), 2-0 (13.51%) and 2-1 (9.72%). A narrow Vietnam win (1-0) appears the most probable outcome.
⭐ Editorial Prediction
Vietnam have failed to score more than two goals in six matches in a row. Without Nguyen Xuan Son, who picked up an injury at the start of the tournament, breaking that run will be even harder. In the second round they failed to score at all. So even a comfortable win for the favourites is unlikely to produce a margin of more than two goals. We are not expecting a rout. Our bet is Pakistan to win with a handicap (+2.5). Predicted score: 2-0.
