A place in the last 16 of the Asian Cup will be at stake on Wednesday at Al Thumama Stadium when Japan take on Indonesia.

Both teams are level after two group fixtures with three points each after the Japanese were beaten 2-1 by Iraq, and Indonesia walked away with a 1-0 triumph over Vietnam.

We say: Japan 3-0 Indonesia

As well as Indonesia have played to this point of the competition, they are facing a Japanese side in a foul mood after being frustrated by Iraq, and we expect the Samurai Blue to take out those frustrations on Tim Garuda and win this contest in convincing fashion.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 3.5 goals.

Group D action at the Asian Cup will come to an end on Wednesday as Iraq take on Vietnam at Jassim Bin Hamad Stadium.

The Iraqis booked their place in the knockout stage with a stunning 2-1 victory over Japan on matchday two, while the Golden Star Warriors were officially eliminated after suffering a 1-0 defeat versus Indonesia.

We say: Iraq 1-0 Vietnam

Vietnam are in a slump, while their upcoming opponents are on a roll and riding high after what they achieved on matchday two, and we expect to see Iraq maintain that momentum and win comfortably on Wednesday.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.
