The upcoming game will mark the first time in 20 months that Vietnam and Thailand have competed against each other. In January 2023, Vietnam drew 1-1 with Thailand at My Dinh National Stadium in Hanoi and then lost 0-2 on the return leg, with Thailand winning the 2023 regional championship for the second time in a row.
The matches against Thailand were also the last time coach Park Hang-seo worked with Vietnamese teams. He said goodbye to the U23 team with a 2-1 victory over U23 Thailand at the SEA Games 31 and then bid farewell to the national team after a 0-1 loss to the Thai national team in Bangkok.
During 2017-2023, Vietnam had one victory, four draws and two defeats against the Thai national team.
