Bangladesh vs India: H2H stats in football
India hold a strong advantage in past meetings. In 31 previous encounters, the Blue Tigers have won 16, drawn 13, and lost only twice to Bangladesh.
That historic dominance establishes India as the favorites, but recent matches have often been tightly contested, with Bangladesh holding India to draws, especially at home.
The last time India faced Bangladesh in Dhaka was 22 years ago, during the 2003 SAFF Gold Cup, where Bangladesh secured a 2-1 win at the same venue.
The most recent fixture ended in a draw, underscoring the competitive edge and stakes for both teams in recent years.
Match preview
Both India and Bangladesh enter this fixture searching for their first win in the ongoing qualifiers. Although India have been eliminated from qualification for the Asian Cup semi-finals, the Blue Tigers are determined to end the year strongly and move up the group standings with a positive result in Dhaka.
For Bangladesh, victory at home would not only break a winless streak in qualifiers but also boost morale for the national team, which have struggled to convert gritty performances into wins.
India, under pressure but free from qualification stress, are expected to play aggressive, attacking football. Coach Jamil emphasized the need to convert chances and remain innovative, aiming to reclaim match momentum after a draw in the reverse fixture earlier in March.
Bangladesh, meanwhile, hope to capitalize on home support and challenge India defensively, particularly by making the most of set pieces and transition play. Their last win against an international opponent came in June, and their focus will be on finishing the calendar year with a statement victory.
