Preview
Bangladesh head into this after a 2-0 loss away to Bahrain on Matchday 1 of the Asian Cup Qualifiers on Wednesday.
Haram and Al-Aswad scored in the first half for the hosts to inflict another defeat on Bangladesh, leaving them bottom of the group and winless since October 2021.
The hosts haven’t won a match at home in their last 11 attempts and their repetitive failures calls for attention. They can only eye maximum points if they have any chance of seeking progress.
On the other hand, Turkmenistan lost 3-1 away to Malaysia in their opening match of Group E on Wednesday.
Rasid, Halim and Corbin-Ong scored for the visitors while Annadurdiyev’s sole strike for the hosts meant nothing more than a consolation effort in between.
However, the visitors have 2 wins out of their last 5 match and come in with slightly more confidence; hoping to make a difference.

Turkmenistan possible 11:
Amanow, Annadyrdyyew, Annaguliyev, Annayev, Atayew, Bashimov, Hojayev, Orazmuhamedow, Rejebov, Saparmammedov and Tagayev
Prediction: Bangladesh 0-1 Turkmenistan
We expect an away win for Turkmenistan as they have the confidence despite the opening day defeat.
The Bangladesh team lack desire, passion and ability to turn up and this gives the visitors a certain advantage as they look to get the job done.
