Vietnamese and Thais have met 19 times throughout history with the balance in favor of the Thais, as they have won 10 times, there have been 7 draws and only 2 victories for Vietnam.
The War Elephants look to defend their title, while the Golden Star Warriors aim to dethrone the reigning champions and lift the coveted trophy for the third time in their history. The first leg, which took place at My Dinh National Stadium, ended in a pulsating 2-2 draw, with both teams displaying their attacking prowess and fighting spirit. Thailand, however, has the advantage of two away goals, which could prove to be crucial in the final outcome of the match.
Thailand, who have won the competition six times, will be eager to retain their title and etch their name in the history books once again. The War Elephants have been in scintillating form throughout the tournament, displaying a brand of football that is both fluid and effective. Theerathon Bunmathan and Sarach Yooyen will be key figures in Thailand's midfield, while Teerasil Dangda and Adisak Kraisorn will be a constant threat to the Vietnamese defence.
On the other hand, Vietnam, who have won the competition twice, will be determined to upset the odds and lift the trophy for the third time in their history. The Golden Star Warriors have been impressive throughout the tournament, displaying a never-say-die attitude and a relentless spirit.
With six goals, Tien Linh is currently tied as the joint top scorer in the tournament, alongside Thailand's Teerasil Dangda. With the golden boot award up for grabs, both forwards will undoubtedly be eager to add to their goal tally and secure the award.
The match will also be the final game for Vietnam's head coach Park Hang-seo, who has had a successful tenure with the team and will be eager to sign off on a high note and guide his team to glory.
