Bangladesh and Singapore will face off for three points in a 2027 qualifier on Tuesday, June 10th. The match will take place at the Bangladesh National Stadium.
Bangladesh will be hoping to carry their momentum into the qualifiers after a confident 2-0 win over Bhutan in a friendly last week. Hamza Choudhury opened the scoring in just the sixth minute, and Sohel Rana added a second shortly after the break to seal the victory.
Now, the Red and Green turn their attention to the Asian Cup qualifiers. Their last outing in the campaign ended in a hard-fought goalless draw away to India.
Singapore also head into this clash on the back of a solid friendly performance, having defeated the Maldives 3-1. They raced to a 3-0 lead by halftime, with Amirul Adli Bin Azmi netting the opener and Ikhsan Fandi grabbing a brace. Ahmed Rizuvan scored a late consolation goal deep into stoppage time.
Interestingly, both teams' last qualifiers ended in 0-0 draws—Singapore held at home by Hong Kong, while Bangladesh shared the spoils with India. As a result, all four teams in Group C currently sit level on one point each, making this upcoming fixture all the more important.
Bangladesh vs Singapore Prediction
Bangladesh have shown some promising signs recently. They’re unbeaten in their last three matches, including two wins—most recently a solid 2-0 victory over Bhutan. The team looks more organized under pressure and will be eager to make a mark in the qualifiers, especially since they haven’t reached the Asian Cup finals since 1980.
Singapore, on the other hand, ended a six-month winless run with a 3-1 friendly win over the Maldives. That result will certainly boost their confidence, but their overall form has been inconsistent. They last appeared in the Asian Cup in 1984, and like Bangladesh, are desperate to break that long drought.
With both teams evenly matched and all sides in Group C sitting on one point, this is shaping up to be a tightly contested affair. Bangladesh will have the home advantage, and their recent performances suggest they might edge it—especially if they can keep things tight at the back and take their chances.
Prediction: Bangladesh 1-0 Singapore
