Malaysia - Singapore: Match Preview
Malaysia have played two matches in this FIFA tournament. In the opening round, they thrashed Bangladesh 3:0, but in their second game the team drew 0:0 with Indonesia. Malaysia were playing with a man advantage, but could not find a way to score. In the previous edition of the ASEAN Championship, Malaysia reached the playoffs but lost 0:4 to Vietnam in the first round. The team have also struggled in bigger tournaments. Malaysia failed to qualify for both the Asian Cup and the World Cup.
Singapore started the new edition of the FIFA ASEAN Cup with a 0:2 defeat to Indonesia, but then the team beat Bangladesh 1:0. They have three points and the fight for a playoff place continues. In the previous edition of the ASEAN Championship, Singapore reached the playoffs but lost to Thailand 4:5 on aggregate over two legs. However, unlike Malaysia, Singapore did qualify for the Asian Cup. At the start of 2027, they will play their group-stage matches in the continental tournament.
