India will look to continue its winning run when it squares off against Vanuatu in the 2nd gamenweek of the Hero Intercontinental Cup 2023 on Monday, June 12 at the Kalinga Stadium.
The Blue Tigers' come into this fixture after a 2-0 win over Mongolia courtesy to goals from Sahal Abdul Samad and Lallianzuala Chhangte. While Vanuatu faced defeat in their opening fixture going down to Lebanon.
In terms of head-to-head the two sides have never faced each other and this will be the first meeting.
With a win for India assuring them a place in the final of the tournament, we expect Igor Stimac's men to go all out against 164th-ranked Vanuatu. While, Vanuatu will aim to bounce back from the defeat and give India a strong competition.
In terms of team news, the Indian coach has all 26 players available for selection, while there are no known injury concerns in the Vanuatu camp either.
