Team news & squads

Iraq team news

Iraq coach Jesus Casas made as many as five changes in the 2-1 win over Japan, and the practice may continue again.

Goalkeeper Jalal Hassan, Saad Natiq, Al-Ammari and Ibrahim Bayesh are likely to remain as the consistent starters, while Mohanan Ali could reclaim his spot from Aymen Hussein upfront.

However, given that Hussein has three goals to his name from the two games so far, it is expected that the Air Force Sports Club forward will have a role to play.

Iraq possible XI: Hassan; Tahseen, Natiq, Sulaka, Adnan; Allee, Al-Ammari; Amyn, Bayesh, Iqbal; M. Ali.

Vietnam team news

Le Pham Thanh Long is suspended for the tie after the midfielder picked up two yellow cards after being brought on as a substitute in the Indonesia loss.

So other than Nguyen Thai Son, the changes from the second game at the tournament in Nguyen Quang Hai and Nguyen Van Tung are also likely to continue on Wednesday.

Hanoi forward Nguyen Van Tung should also start upfront once again.
