The Philippines host Vietnam at the Rizal Memorial Stadium in Manila on Wednesday for their clash in the 2024 ASEAN Championship. Ranked 149th in the world, the Street Dogs have drawn both their fixtures in the competition so far; a pair of 1-1 stalemates with Myanmar and Laos.
Also, interestingly, in both games, Albert Capellas' side fell behind in the opening stanza before fighting back to earn a draw midway through the second half.
With two points in the bag from two games, the Philippines are in third place in the Group B standings, just two points adrift of second-placed Indonesia.
However, if the Azkals were to boost their progression hopes, it is imperative for them to win their remaining games.

On the other hand, Vietnam have won both their games in the ASEAN Championship so far. They overcame Laos 4-1 in their opening game, before seeing off the Garuda Team 1-0 on matchday two.
As things stand, the Golden Star Warriors are well-placed to reach the knockout stages, with their place all but confirmed should they win again on Wednesday.
