After two matches in Group A of the 2025 Southeast Asian U23 Championship, U23 Indonesia is temporarily leading with 6 absolute points. U23 Philippines and U23 Malaysia (both with 3 points) share the next 2 positions. At the bottom of the table is U23 Brunei, which has not won any points and has been officially eliminated.

With this score, U23 Indonesia only needs to draw with Malaysia in the final match to be sure to continue as the top team in Group A. Meanwhile, U23 Malaysia must beat U23 Indonesia and wait for the Philippines to not beat Brunei to get the ticket to continue.

Before this match, U23 Malaysia received good news when two key players Aliff Izwan Yuslan and Faris Danish Mohd Asrul had fully recovered from their injuries and were ready to play. The return of these two stars is considered a quality addition to the U23 Malaysia squad.

According to statistics, since 2009, U23 Indonesia has not had any victory over U23 Malaysia in official tournaments. In 16 years, the two teams have met 6 times with 3 wins for Malaysia and 3 draws.

The 2025 Southeast Asian U23 Championship will consider head-to-head matches when teams have the same number of points. If U23 Malaysia defeats Indonesia, and U23 Philippines defeats Brunei, the three teams U23 Indonesia, Philippines and Malaysia will all have 6 points. These three teams will use their head-to-head results to determine their ticket to the next round.
