Iraq is set to face Vietnam in an Asian Cup match, and Iraq has the opportunity to win their group for the first time since 2007. They need to avoid defeat on matchday three to achieve this, extending their unbeaten run in the group stage of the tournament to seven matches.

Japan had the majority of possession in their match against Iraq on matchday two, but Iraq's solid defense prevented Japan from scoring until second-half stoppage time. Iraq aims to end the group stage with a 100% record, something they have never achieved in any previous Asian Cup appearances.

Vietnam, managed by Philippe Troussier, has had a challenging year, losing all three of their 2024 fixtures. They won't advance to the knockout stage of this tournament, and their goal is to play for pride. Vietnam has conceded a combined five goals in their two group games.

Recent encounters between Iraq and Vietnam have been closely contested, with Vietnam losing in the 2026 World Cup qualifying last November (1-0) and losing 3-2 in the 2019 Asian Cup group stage after squandering a 2-1 second-half advantage.

Iraq is in excellent form, having won their last five matches, and they are expected to continue their momentum against Vietnam. Vietnam is on a downward trend, losing seven of their last eight matches, and they are likely to struggle against Iraq's strong performance.

Jalal Hassan, Hussein Ali, Saad Natiq, Amir Al-Ammari, Ibrahim Bayesh, and Ali Jasim were the only players to keep their place in the Iraqi starting 11 on matchday two. Aymen Hussein, with three goals in his last two games, is a key player for Iraq.

Vietnam will be without Le Pham Thanh Long, who is suspended for this encounter. Troussier made two changes to the starting 11 on matchday two, bringing in Nguyen Quang Hai and Nguyen Van Tung.

I expect Iraq to grab the minimal victory in this clash.

伊拉克将在亚洲杯比赛中面对越南，这是伊拉克自2007年以来首次有机会赢得小组冠军。他们需要在第三个比赛日避免失利才能实现这一目标，将他们在小组赛阶段的不败纪录延长到7场。

在第二场比赛中，日本队在与伊拉克队的比赛中拥有大部分控球权，但伊拉克队坚实的防守使日本队直到下半场补时阶段才进球。伊拉克的目标是以100%的战绩结束小组赛，这是他们在之前的亚洲杯比赛中从未取得过的成绩。

由菲利普·特鲁西耶(Philippe Troussier)执教的越南队经历了充满挑战的一年，失去了2024年的全部三场比赛。他们不会进入淘汰赛阶段，他们的目标是为荣誉而战。越南队在两场小组赛中共丢了5个球。

越南在去年11月的2026年世界杯预选赛中以0比1败北，在2019年亚洲杯小组赛中以2比2败北。

伊拉克队的状态非常好，最近五场比赛都取得了胜利，他们有望在对阵越南的比赛中继续保持这种势头。越南队在最近的8场比赛中输掉了7场，处于下滑趋势，他们很可能会与伊拉克队的强劲表现作斗争。

贾拉勒·哈桑、侯赛因·阿里、萨阿德·纳蒂克、阿米尔·阿姆马里、易卜拉欣·巴耶什和阿里·贾西姆是唯一在第二场比赛中留在伊拉克首发11人名单上的球员。在最近两场比赛中打入3球的艾曼·侯赛因是伊拉克队的关键球员。

越南队将没有Le Pham Thanh Long，他将因本场比赛停赛。在第二场比赛中，特鲁西耶对首发11人进行了两次调整，换上了阮广海和阮文东。

我预计伊拉克将在这场冲突中取得最小的胜利。
