Our pre-match preview

China should enjoy most of the possession and push forward through their wide players, looking to dictate the tempo from the first whistle. Malaysia are likely to sit deeper and look to hit on the counter, so the game may be decided by who handles the transitions better.

The key battle is China's midfield against Malaysia's ability to hold their shape under sustained pressure. If the hosts win the second balls around the box, they should create enough chances to build a lead, while Malaysia's best route back is through quick, direct play.
