Thailand vs Vietnam Prediction 29 September 2026
🔊 A month ago, Thailand and Vietnam met in the ASEAN Championship final, and the title went to the Vietnamese once again. Vietnam won 2-0 in Bangkok, then drew in Hanoi to claim the trophy on aggregate (4-2). Now Thailand have a chance for revenge at the new ASEAN FIFA Cup in Indonesia. Both sides began the tournament with wins, and only the group winners advance to the final.
Head-to-head statistics Thailand - Vietnam

Thailand Team Overview
The ASEAN Championship was played outside a FIFA window, which meant Anthony Hudson had to manage without some of his key players. The ASEAN Cup falls within an international window, so Chanathip Songkrasin and Supachai Sarachat have returned to the squad. Chanathip has gone eight matches without defeat against Vietnam. Before the tournament began, Hudson lost Jonathan Khamdi to a knee injury. Thailand thrashed Pakistan - four goals scored, none conceded. Thailand have scored in 12 of their last 13 matches. The only side to keep a clean sheet against them in that run was Vietnam, in Bangkok.
Match Results: Thailand

Vietnam Team Overview
Kim Sang-sik led Vietnam to the last two ASEAN Championship titles. They opened this tournament with a narrow win over the Philippines, Nguyen Dinh Bac scoring the only goal. The victory came at a cost, though - Nguyen Xuan Son went off in the second half with a thigh injury and is out of the tournament. Kim had already lost Nguyen Quang Hai, who scored the second goal in Bangkok, before that, and captain Nguyen Hoang Duc is recovering from injury and is a doubt. Despite all this, Vietnam have barely lost - just one defeat in their last 23 matches.

Correct Score Prediction
According to the algorithm's calculations, the most likely correct scores are 1-0 (14.5%), 1-1 (13.49%) and 0-1 (12.37%). The first option has a slight probability advantage, but the distribution across the three outcomes is fairly close.
Reliable Bet
Thailand have scored in 12 of their last 13 matches. The only side to keep them out was Vietnam - in the first final leg in Bangkok. But even in the return match in Hanoi, Thailand went ahead twice. The odds here are modest, but the probability is high. The bet is Thailand Team Total - Over 0.5.
⭐ Editorial Prediction
Vietnam have gone unbeaten in 22 of their last 23 matches. A draw would suit the bet just fine - that was the result in Hanoi a month ago that handed Vietnam the title. The venue in Bandung is neutral, and home advantage in Bangkok did nothing for Thailand. We do not expect Thailand to beat the reigning ASEAN champions, even with their strongest squad available. The bet is Vietnam not to lose. Predicted score: 1-2.
