Both teams will be locking horns after 10 years in a competitive fixture, and they will aim to get three points. The Hong Kong National Football Team and the Indian National Football Team are placed in Group C as well. In the last match, Bangladesh played out a 0-0 draw against India and missed a great opportunity to win the game despite having plenty of chances. They will look to rectify their mistake on Tuesday, as Singapore will be a tough team to beat. The Bengal Tigers have never defeated Singapore in a competitive fixture and will look to beat them for the first time. The home team's atmosphere will be very difficult for the away side for sure.

Singapore played out a draw against Hong Kong in their last game in the Asian Cup Qualifiers.

Now they will travel to Bangladesh to face them in their second Qualifiers game. Recently, they played the Maldives in a friendly game, which they won by 3-1, and now will aim to get a similar result on Tuesday as well. The Singapore Football Team will be confident of getting some points from this fixture as they have some quality players who can create a lot of problems for the home side. This will be a mouthwatering clash for sure.

Key Players to Watch in Bangladesh vs Singapore

Hamza Choudhury (Bangladesh)

The England-born Bangladeshi midfielder has already impressed everyone with his performance in the last two international games. He scored his first goal against Bhutan in a friendly game just a few days back. The coaching staff and his teammates described him as a leader who has very well adapted to the team's culture. Hamza can play as a defensive midfielder as well as a right-back. Physically, he can dominate opponents and can shrug off challenges very easily. Currently, he plays for Leicester City, and this season he was loaned to Sheffield United.

Hariss Harun (Singapore)

Harun is a legend for his team, as he is 34 years old and have already made 141 international appearances for Singapore. He is a versatile player who can play as a defensive midfielder as well as a centre back.

His leadership in midfield will be crucial in this upcoming game as he is someone who can keep the balance in the midfield and can help his team in attack as well as in defence. Physically, he is very strong despite his age and is capable of stopping counterattacks very well, as he positions himself very well on the pitch. This season, he has played 45 matches and has consistently performed well.

Bangladesh vs Singapore Prediction

The Bengal Tigers have never defeated Singapore in the past, and it will be a great opportunity for them to get the win to secure three points. Group C is a very tight and competitive group, and every point will matter. The atmosphere in the stadium will be hostile, and surely, the home team will dominate the game. Most probably, this fixture will end in a stalemate.

Predicted Score: Bangladesh 1-1 Singapore
