This is the first match that head coach Kim Sang Sik leads our national team. Therefore, both the coach and the players want to win 3 points as a debut reward. To retaliate against the Vietnamese team, the Philippines is also not inferior. They have called up 28 foreign players and had a training camp in Dubai. The match between Vietnam and the Philippines on the evening of June 6, 2024, in the framework of group F, the 2nd qualifying round of the 2026 World Cup, is definitely worth watching.
First half betting
In group F, the Philippines and Vietnam are the bottom two teams. After a series of losses, the door to the World Cup for both teams is gradually closing. Vietnam must win against the Philippines in this match to earn 3 points to end the dark days and create motivation to face Iraq 5 days after this match. With the home advantage and an attacking style that overwhelms the opponent, under the guidance of the new coach Kim Sang Sik, the “golden star” team will take control of the match from the start. This time, the Korean captain is tasked with finding goals for Quang Hai as well as strengthening the defense to effectively thwart the opponent’s attacks. Possessing a squad of foreign players with good physical condition, the Philippines team is not hesitant to apply an attacking strategy from the early minutes of the match. With nothing to lose, they will push their formation to the maximum to find goals from the gaps of the Vietnamese team. In summary, the first 45 minutes of the match will be a tense and intense period of attacks. Surely, we will witness many goals scored at My Dinh Stadium on that day. First half over/under betting: Over (1.0 HT).
Full match betting
The “golden star” team has lost all 5 recent matches. Although they have a new head coach in Kim Sang Sik, he has only had 5 days to train the team. The time to get acquainted and understand each other is too short. Moreover, the crowded schedule of V.League matches in May has exhausted the strength of the Vietnamese players. Therefore, it will be difficult for the players of coach Kim Sang Sik to reach their peak form in the upcoming match. Despite calling up a squad of foreign players to dominate the Vietnamese team, remember that football is a team sport, with each individual bonding and coordinating smoothly with each other. Although they have had a training camp in Dubai, the imported players certainly do not have enough time to understand and harmonize with each other in such a short time. Looking back at the history of the last 5 matches, there was only 1 match with a total score of 6 goals. In the most recent encounter, Vietnam only won against the Philippines with a score of 2-0. Therefore, we should not expect too much about an explosion of goals for the match between Vietnam and the Philippines in the framework of group F, the 2nd qualifying round of the 2026 World Cup. Full match over/under betting: Under (2.75 FT).
