Recent meetings between these two nations have often been close and decided by fine margins, with the latest encounter in April ending in a victory for China U23. However, reuniting in this continental tournament at the Asian Games is likely to be even tighter, as both teams are coming off a 0-0 draw in their latest match in the competition. China U23 boast a solid record, having gone unbeaten in their last 5 matches, but interestingly, UAE U23 have also proved quite resilient, losing by more than a single goal in only 1 of their last 5 games. Judging by the game state where neither side dominates possession past the halfway line on average, UAE U23 have a good chance to hold out for a result and withstand the hosts' attacking threats all the way through.
