According to the schedule, the Vietnamese team will meet Nepal in both matches in October. The first leg will take place on October 9 at Binh Duong Stadium, and the second leg will take place on October 14 at Thong Nhat Stadium (HCMC).

Notably, in addition to Vietnam Television (VTV) as usual,FPT Play will also broadcast the second leg live as the unit coordinating the production of television signals for this match.

The two matches against Nepal are considered the best opportunity for the Vietnamese team to win all 6 points, thereby improving their position on the rankings and creating a psychological advantage for the next matches.

After two matches with Nepal, the Vietnamese team will travel to visit Laos on November 18, 2025.

This is a match that coach Kim Sang-sik and his team must win if they want to keep their hopes of qualifying for the 2027 Asian Cup. The biggest highlight of this qualifying campaign is the rematch against Malaysia on March 31, 2026. In the first leg, the Vietnamese team suffered a heavy 0-4 defeat away from home, so the return match will be crucial.
