India have been drawn into Group C of the final round of the AFC Asian Cup Saudi Arabia 2027 Qualifiers, alongside Hong Kong, Singapore, and Bangladesh. The teams will compete against each other twice in a home-and-away round-robin format until March 2026, with the group winners advancing to the Asian Cup tournament.
In their friendly match against the Maldives, India won without conceding a goal. However, Brandon Fernandes sustained an injury during the match and was carried off the field on a stretcher, making his participation in Tuesday's match highly unlikely.
On a positive note for Indian fans, veteran forward Sunil Chhetri is in fine form. He scored during the match against the Maldives, marking his 95th international career goal, and he will aim to add to that tally on Tuesday.
Bangladesh has strengthened their squad with the addition of Hamza Choudhury, who has previously played in the Premier League. The Sheffield United player, who has represented England at the Under-21 and Under-23 levels, chose to play for Bangladesh, the birthplace of his mother.
Bangladesh captain Jamal Bhuyan has referred to Hamza Choudhury as the "Messi" of their national team and has downplayed comparisons with Chhetri.
