The U23 Asian Cup schedule for tomorrow (2026.1.13) has China facing Thailand, with live coverage on CCTV-5 and the CCTV app.

The official schedule details are shown in the image below; two Group D third-round matches will be held tomorrow.

1. At 7:30 PM tomorrow, Iraq will compete against Australia.
2. At 7:30 PM tomorrow, Thailand will go up against China.

The broadcast schedule for CCTV-5 and the CCTV app is detailed in the image below.

1. For such a high-level event, with China performing so well, CCTV-5 will definitely adjust its broadcast schedule to air the China vs. Thailand match live at 7:30 PM tomorrow. CCTV-5+ may also revise its plans to broadcast the Australia vs. Iraq game.

Match Preview

1. China has 4 points, ranking first in the group; Australia has 3 points, second place; Iraq has 2 points, third place; Thailand has 1 point, fourth place.
2. The qualification situation for tomorrow’s two matches is quite complicated. If China wins or draws against Thailand, they will definitely advance. If China loses to Thailand, it depends on other results: Australia must have a decisive result for China to be eliminated. If Australia draws, then three teams will have 4 points each, and the tiebreaker will be decided by goal difference.
3. Personally, I believe China is confident to beat Thailand and directly qualify for the quarterfinals as group leaders. What do you all think?
