Myanmar vs Malaysia Prediction and Betting Tips | 21st December 2022

Myanmar host Malaysia at the Thuwunna Stadium in Yangon on Wednesday in AFF Championship action in Group B.

The Chinthe haven't progressed beyond the group stages in their last two appearances in the competition and face another tough road to the knockout stages with Vietnam, Singapore and Laos also in the group.

It will be especially challenging as Antoine Hey's side haven't won a single game in the 2022 calendar year so far - they've played seven times and lost six, drawing once.

Malaysia were also knocked out in the group stages of the 2020 AFF Championship, having finished as the runners-up two years before that.

The Tigers of Malaya are set to make their 14th appearance in the ASEAN tournament and have been crowned champions once in 2010.

Contrary to Myanmar's form, the Malaysians are unbeaten in their last five games, winning thrice. They will aim to continue that form into the AFF tournament too.

Myanmar vs Malaysia Prediction

Myanmar, ranked 158 in the world and 12 places below Malaysia, have the odds stacked against them here, given their poor form in the 2022 calendar year. But the fact that they've won two of their last three meetings with the Tigers of Malaya should give them some confidence.

Kim Pan-gon's side have the momentum in their favor after back-to-back friendly wins and, given the better quality in their squad, they should be able to prevail in Yangon.

Prediction: Myanmar 1-2 Malaysia
