India’s make-or-break week begins on Thursday when the country takes on Singapore in the third round of the AFC Asian Cup 2027 qualifiers.
The Blue Tigers are currently bottom of Group C in the qualifiers, with just one point from two games.
However, that could all change if they get good results in the double header (home and away) against Singapore, who are currently quite top of the group with four points from as many games.
“We are playing away first, so we definitely need a positive result to start with,” Indian head coach Khalid Jamil said at the pre-match press conference.
«We played against CAFA last month and that ultimately helped us a lot to shape the team. All the players are professionals, so they know how to prepare and take responsibility.»
