South Korea v Hong Kong - Men
Hong Kong and Myanmar will clash after more than six years.

Hong Kong will host Myanmar in a friendly double-header this month, with the first game scheduled on Friday at the Mong Kok Stadium.

The Strengths will continue their preparations for the 2023 Asia Cup, for which they have qualified, although their form has been disastrous lately. Jorn Andersen's side have lost five of their seven competitive games this year, including their last four without scoring.

Myanmar, meanwhile, failed to qualify for next year's showpiece after losing their three group games in the third round. However, the Chinthe will be in action at the AFF Championship in December and will hope to prepare for the same by faring well here.


Hong Kong vs Myanmar Head-To-Head

Hong Kong and Myanmar have met only twice - both friendlies - before and share the spoils with one win apiece.

Hong Kong drew first blood in November 2015 with a stunning 5-0 victory before Myanmar exacted revenge seven months later in a 3-0 vanquish.
