The international friendly between Cambodia and Bangladesh will take place at National Olympic Stadium on Thursday at 5:30 pm IST.
On Thursday evening, Bangladesh will travel to the National Olympic Stadium for a friendly match against Cambodia. While Bangladesh has competitive commitments this month that they need to consider, their hosts, Cambodia, have only one exhibition match scheduled following their brief participation in the AFF Championship.
Cambodia’s World Cup 2022 qualifying campaign was a huge letdown, as the 176th-ranked nation only earned one point in their eight games in AFC Group C. Their disappointing streak ended with a humiliating 10-0 defeat to group winners Iran. Despite securing two victories in front of their home fans in the recent AFF Championship, Cambodia’s attempts to qualify for the 2023 Asian Cup were also unsuccessful in the third-round qualification stage. However, their streak of failing to progress beyond the group stage continued for the ninth time in nine tournaments, as defeats to Thailand and Indonesia knocked out Ryu Hirose’s team, while the latter two teams advanced to the knockout rounds. Cambodia finished in third place.
As Cambodia prepares for their first friendly match of 2023, they can take solace in their two victories during the AFF Championship, both of which were achieved at home and involved an impressive total of eight goals scored. However, Cambodia’s defense has struggled, as they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 11 games since their shutout against Laos in December 2021. Meanwhile, Bangladesh is aiming to break their pattern of early eliminations in the SAFF Championship, a biennial tournament where South Asian teams compete against each other. Similar to Cambodia, Bangladesh reached the third qualifying round for the 2023 Asian Cup but were defeated by Bahrain, Turkmenistan, and Malaysia. Nevertheless, Javier Cabrera’s team displayed resilience during three friendly matches in March.
Cambodia probable starting lineup: Soksela, Sambath, Visal, Chanchav, Muslim, Chanpolin, Souhana, Baraing, Chanthea, Vathanaka, Lim
Bangladesh probable starting lineup: Zico, Kazi, Barman, Ghosh, Mia, Sohel Rana, Bhuyan, Hasan, Ibrahim, Reza, Hossain
