Kick-off: Friday, 21:00 (UTC+6)

With the group winners assured of a knockout stage spot, India’s East Bengal and Nejmeh SC of Lebanon are set for a thrilling encounter to decide the Group A winners on Friday.
Nejmeh are in the driver’s seat, only needing a draw to finish top but will have to contend with an East Bengal side who will be oozing confidence after their 4-0 defeat of Bashundhara Kings of Bangladesh.
A win for East Bengal will see them finishing top, with the best runners-up from across the three West groups to also advance.

Bhutan’s Paro FC have an outside chance of finishing second, provided they defeat Bashundhara and East Bengal lose to Nejmeh.

Al Arabi SC (KUW) v FC Arkadag (TKM)
Kick-off: Friday, 17:30 (UTC+3)
Maziya Sports & RC (MDV) v FC Abdysh-Ata
Kick-off: Friday, 21:30

Despite sitting pretty at the top with six points, FC Arkadag could still miss out on the top spot should they lose to Kuwait’s Al Arabi SC on Friday.
Turkmenistan’s Arkadag followed up their opening day 2-1 win over Al Arabi with a 2-0 defeat of Kyrgyz Republic’s FC Abdysh-Ata and only need a draw against Al Arabi to confirm the top spot.

Al Arabi bounced back from their shock 1-0 defeat to Abdysh-Ata on Matchday One to beat Maziya Sports & RC of the Maldives 2-0 and will fancy their chances against Arkadag.
Abdysh-Ata are also very much in the mix as a win against Maziya could see them finishing top.

Al Seeb Club of Oman are assured of top spot after two wins but will decide the fate of Palestine’s Hilal Alquds in their showdown.

Hilal Alquds are on two points and need a win to stand a chance of advancing as the best runners-up.
Defeat for the Palestinian side, should there be a winner in the Al Ahli v Al Futowa SC clash, will see Hilal Alquds dropping down the standings.

Kick-off: Saturday, 16:00 (UTC+6:30)
Myanmar’s Shan United FC and Tainan City FC of Chinese Taipei will square off on Saturday to decide the group winners.

Group E (Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia)
Madura United (IDN) v Preah Khan Reach Svay Rieng FC (CAM)
Kick-off: Saturday, 15:00 (UTC+8)
Indonesia’s Madura United will be desperate to avoid defeat when they face Cambodia’s Preah Khan Reach Syay Rieng FC.

Svay Rieng FC are assured of their knockout stage berth and only need a draw to finish top, a result which will also suit Madura United who played to a goalless stalemate against Mongolia’s SP Falcons.
