Hong Kong and India have been the two ultimate favourites in this Asia Cup Qualification Group D. Having racked up all the possible 6 points, they clash against each other in the penultimate showdown which shall decide the number one and two spots. What makes this game even more interesting is India and Hong Kong's home and away forms respectively, which have seen comprehensive wins with no goals conceded at all. This game should be a cracker.
India vs Hong Kong Betting Tips
India have seen over 2.5 goals in most of their recent games, 5 from their last 7, to be precise. This has been due to the Indians opening the scoring and even doubling the lead, just to concede to silly mistakes over the latter portion of the ninety minutes. A similar pattern has been seen in Hong Kong's games, but contrary to India, their Asian counterparts have conceded first in 7 of their last 9 games but have overcome deficit to oust their opponent and win all three points. This means that we should see over 2.5 goals most likely in this game, with a 2-1 win for India being the most ideal scenario.
- Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals
- ACCA: Over 2.5 goals + BTTS
- Prediction: 2-1 India

India Team News
Captain fantastic Sunil Chhetri has been in unbelievable form, leading India to 2 wins through his three goals in the last two games. In fact, 3 of India's four goals in this Asia Cup qualification campaign have come from Chhetri. The veteran Indian attacking midfielder also scored a sublime freekick in the previous game to give the hosts the lead, which was the highlight of the game. Igor Stimac has been experimenting with a 4-man backline as well as a 5-man defensive line lately, but it seems that he would be retreating the previous game's tactics and replicate the same back-four.
Hong Kong Team News
Number nine Matthew Orr has scored in both the Hong Kong games in this qualification campaign. Along with Ming-Him Sun, Orr forms a formidable partnership up top. Not only Orr, but Sun has been on the score-sheet too, thanks to his great goal in their recent 3-0 win over Cambodia. From the bench, Siu Chan could be a great option if India holds their Asia Cup counterparts to a late lead. Chan came off the bench to score Hong Kong's third goal against Cambodia on the weekend.
