Myanmar host Syria at the Thuwunna Stadium in Yangon on Tuesday in the 2027 AFC Asian Cup qualifiers, looking to avenge a humiliating loss earlier this week. The Chinthe were crushed 5-1 by the Middle Eastern side, spearheaded by a sensational hat-trick from Omar Khirbin as Syria took the Southeast Asian side to the cleaners.

Nanda Kyaw pulled one back for the Burmese in stoppage time, but it was nothing more than a consolation strike as Myanmar succumbed to their first loss of the campaign.

With six points in three games, Myo Hlaing Win's side are currently second in Group E, with Syria leading the charge after collecting all nine points and maintaining a 100% win record.

Another victory for them would all but seal their place in the Saudi Arabian showpiece, but Myanmar will be hoping to set the cat among the pigeons by springing a surprise win.

Ranked 168th in the world, Myanmar have not qualified for the Asian Cup since 1968, which remains their first and only appearance in the competition. Syria, meanwhile, are looking to qualify for the third time in a row and an eighth time overall.

The last edition in 2023 was particularly special for them, as Syria progressed beyond the group stages for the first time and reached the last 16, where Iran ended their campaign on penalties.

Myanmar vs Syria Prediction

The Qasioun Eagles demonstrated their frightening attacking capabilities this week by putting five past the Chinthe, who looked to be in sixes and sevens.

On home turf, they could opt for a more cautious approach, but their rivals from the Middle East could still find a way past them.
