The results of the training trip to Korea will influence coach Kim Sang-sik's personnel decisions more than what happens in the match against Laos. The Korean coach has his own plans and this is the time for him to carry out his calculations against Indonesia.

In goal, goalkeeper Nguyen Dinh Trieu will continue to be trusted. Goalkeeper coach Lee Won-jae considers him the number 1 goalkeeper of the Vietnamese team. Dinh Trieu made a mistake against Laos, but this was not enough for the 1991-born goalkeeper to lose his position. For now, Nguyen Filip still has to accept sitting on the bench for at least one more match.

In general, Rafael Struick, Hokky Caraka or Arhan Kaka are not very good strikers. The main task of the Vietnamese team is to prevent Pratama Arhan's throw-ins. The impressively tall central defender Bui Hoang Viet Anh will have his first starting match. He plays in the center of the defense. On the right is captain Do Duy Manh, on the left is central defender Nguyen Thanh Chung.

The full-backs are where coach Kim Sang-sik is forced to make adjustments. Truong Tien Anh and Khuat Van Khang did not perform well against Laos. The left-back position will likely be taken by Vu Van Thanh - who is good at attacking and defending. The right wing will have Pham Xuan Manh - a strong player, ready to clash with a dangerous opponent like Indonesia.

Up front, Nguyen Tien Linh continues to play the main striker role. He has shown his good form recently. Nguyen Quang Hai has the starting card to replace Hai Long in the right striker position. Tuan Hai, with his energy, is capable of playing as a left striker.

The Vietnamese team will meet the Indonesian team at 8:00 p.m. on December 15. Coach Kim Sang-sik and his team aim to win all 3 points at home.

Expected lineup of Vietnam team: Nguyen Dinh Trieu, Vu Van Thanh, Thanh Chung, Duy Manh, Viet Anh, Xuan Manh, Ngoc Tan, Hoang Duc, Tuan Hai, Quang Hai, Tien Linh.
