Jakarta, CNN Indonesia —
Indonesian National team will field their best line-up against Vietnam in the AFF Cup 2020 (AFF Cup 2021), Wednesday (15/12). The following is the prediction for the Indonesian National Team vs Vietnam.
After carrying out a number of experiments against Laos and Cambodia, in the 2020 AFF Cup Group B match (2021) which was held at Bishan Stadium, Singapore, Wednesday (15/12) night, Shin Tae Yong most likely fielded Muhammad Riyandi as the main goalkeeper.
Although he has not appeared in the previous two matches, Riyandi is mentally ready. This Barito Putera player became the first choice against Taiwan in the 2023 Asian Cup Qualification Play-off match. He was also the main choice against Afghanistan and Myanmar.
However, Ernando Ari can also be the best option if Riyandi is injured or unavailable. Meanwhile, Nadeo Argawinata may be the third choice because when he appeared in the 2022 Asian Cup Qualifiers he was burglarized four times by Vietnam.
Meanwhile, Syahrul Fadil still appeared less convincing in his debut so that he conceded twice from Cambodia. The flight hours are still minimal.
The defense quartet may belong to Asnawi Mangkualam, Fachruddin Aryanto, Alfeandra Dewangga, and Pratama Arhan. Fachruddin will be an option as a central defender because Elkan Banggott may be absent.
The Ipswich Town player was asked to undergo quarantine by the Singapore government because of the same plane with passengers who were exposed to Covid-19. Until this news was made, PSSI was still waiting for confirmation on Baggott’s decision for Indonesia vs Vietnam.
Furthermore, the position of defensive midfielder will be given to Rachmat Irianto. The Persebaya player missed the match against Laos, but scored two goals in the first match against Cambodia.
For the midfield, it is likely that Witan Sulaeman, Evan Dimas, Ricky Kambuaya, and Irfan Jaya will not come out of the grip. This combination has proven to be effective and fertile in terms of scoring goals.
Finally, the striker position most likely belongs to Ezra Walian. This Persib player scored three goals from four matches. He scored two goals in the friendly match and one goal in the 2020 AFF Cup.
Predicted Lineup of Indonesia vs Vietnam
Indonesia (4-1-4-1): Muhammad Riyandi (PG); Asnawi Mangkualam, Fachruddin Aryanto, Alfeandra Dewangga, Primary Arhan; Rachmat Irianto; Witan Sulaeman, Evan Dimas, Ricky Kambuaya, Irfan Jaya; Ezra Walian.
