On Tuesday, June 11, Indonesia will face the Philippines in Jakarta for an AFC World Cup 2026 qualifier. The match will begin at 14:30 Central European Time. Predictions and betting tips for this match have been prepared by the Dailysports analyst team.
Indonesia
The Indonesian national team is fighting for a spot in the next round of qualifiers, currently sitting in second place with 7 points. However, Vietnam is just one point behind. Therefore, Indonesia cannot afford to drop points against the Philippines, as Vietnam will be facing an already unmotivated Iraq.
In the previous round, Indonesia lost at home to Iraq 0-2, with Iraq securing a perfect 15 points from 5 matches. However, prior to that, Indonesia achieved a crucial away victory over Vietnam, winning 3-0.
Philippines
The match against Indonesia will be the last for the Philippines in this qualification cycle. The Philippines have only accumulated 1 point from 5 matches and have no chance of advancing to the next round. This is surprising, as many thought they would compete with Vietnam for the second position. However, the Philippines have failed miserably in this qualifier.
In the previous round, the Philippines were close to securing a point against Vietnam but conceded in the fifth minute of added time, losing 2-3.

Indonesia vs Philippines prediction
Indonesia is the favorite, and the Philippines' attack has been extremely weak in this qualifier. My prediction is that only one team will score.
