Laos will host Vietnam at the New Laos National Stadium in Vientiane in Group B of the 2022 AFF Championship on Wednesday (December 21).
The Warlord Paprika will make their 13th appearance in the competition but have never gone beyond the group stage in their previous 12 appearances. In the last three editions of the championship, Laos haven't won once, losing 11 games on the trot.
Ahead of the latest AFF tournament, there's not much confidence, as it's been a mixed year for the nation. Michael Weiss' side have won and lost thrice in six games.
Vietnam, meanwhile, are set to participate for the 14th time in the ASEAN tournament. They have reached the semifinals in their last four appearances, winning the competition in 2018.
