Despite finishing the group stage with a 0-0 draw against Malaysia, U23 Indonesia still maintains a big advantage in the upcoming match against U23 Thailand. Van Dao fans expect their team to make the most of favorable factors to repeat the victory as in the 2023 U23 Southeast Asian Semi-final.
In terms of strength, the Indonesian squad is quite even, notably the appearance of Jens Raven with 6 goals scored in the match against Brunei. In addition, another advantage is that they are playing at home - "fire pan" Gelora Bung Karno with tens of thousands of passionate fans.
Not to mention, the earlier end of Group A helps the Indonesian players have enough time to rest and recover their physical strength before the U23 Southeast Asian semi-final.
Meanwhile, U23 Thailand is under a lot of pressure. In the final match of the group stage, they shared points after a draw with a much-underrated opponent, U23 Myanmar. In addition, the head coach of the Golden Temple team also faced difficulties when he could not make his mark as a coach.
In terms of performance and history of confrontations, Indonesia is superior. In the last 4 encounters, they have won against Thailand 3 times, including a 3-1 victory in the semi-finals in 2023.
The match between U23 Thailand and U23 Indonesia takes place at 20:00 on 20:00 today (July 25).
