Bangladesh vs Malaysia prediction
Bangladesh gained an invite to this inaugural FIFA ASEAN Cup following India choosing to withdraw. It’s a good opportunity for them, especially ahead of November’s Saff Championship. They will be underdogs but this serves as a nice test for them and their players, starting here against Malaysia in Jakarta.
Malaysia will more than likely control much of this encounter and keep Bangladesh pinned back inside their own half. Both from an individual and team perspective, this Malaysian side are superior in ability and that should be reflected in the full time score, so back them to pick up three points.
