Bangladesh coach Javier Cabrera made two changes as his charges take on Bhutan in the last group stage match with a fairly simple task for reaching the semifinals.

Rahmat Mia replaced injured Tariq Kazi while Sheikh Morsalin, who scored the third goal in their 3-1 win against Maldives, replaced Faisal Ahmed Fahim up front.

The coach is likely to stick with his Maldives' game plan by playing without a genuine striker while deploying captain Jamal Bhuiyan as a false nine.

They will take the field at 8:00pm knowing even a 1-0 defeat will see them through to the last four of the competition for the first time in 14 years.

Lebanon beat Maldives 1-0 in the first match of Group B today to confirm their semifinals spot as group winners. The Middle Eastern side have nine points from three matches, six more than Maldives and Bangladesh, who will round off the group stage against Bhutan.
