Indonesia U-23, under Dutch coach Gerald Vanenburg, have collected four points from two games.

South Korea U-23: No injuries reported. Lee Min-sung is expected to retain his winning formula, with prolific forward Oh Se-hun and midfielder Kim Min-woo leading the charge. Their defence, marshalled by Lee Han-beom, remains unbreached in qualifiers.
Indonesia U-23: Coach Gerald Vanenburg is likely to stick with the side that beat Macau. Rafael Struick and Marselino Ferdinan will be key in attack, while captain Pratama Arhan anchors the defence. No major absentees have been reported.

Match Preview

This is the decider in Group J. South Korea enter as clear favourites, having scored 12 goals without reply in just two games. Their high-pressure and relentless attack could trouble Indonesia’s defence. For Indonesia, this is must-win territory. Sitting on four points, a draw will likely eliminate them, while victory could see them leapfrog Korea. Erick Thohir, PSSI Chairman, has urged Garuda Muda to fight with unity and discipline. If Vanenburg’s side can replicate the creativity shown against Macau and tighten defensively, an upset could be possible — though history and form favour the Taeguk Warriors.
