  Singapore squad

  With four previous title wins, Singapore is the second most successful side in the competition having reigned supreme in 1998, 2004, 2007 and 2012. Hosting the tournament in its entirety for the 2020 edition, the Lions may well be habouring hopes of keeping the illustrious trophy in the island.

  Japanese Tatsuma Yoshida is the man charged to bring glory back to Singapore and he will be relying on the very experienced captain Hariss Harun as the leader of the side.

  Attacker Ikhsan Fandi is the key player for the Lions. Though young, Ikhsan will no doubt have learnt a lot training and playing with Norwegian side, Jerv. 

  Full squad: Hassan Sunny (Lions City Sailors), Izwan Mahbud (Hougang United), Syazwan Buhari (Tampines Rovers), Zharfan Rohaizad (Tanjong Pagar), Amirul Adli (Lion City Sailors), Iqram Rifqi (Geyland International), Irfan Fandi (BG Pathum United), Nazrul Nazari (Hougang United), Nur Adam Abdullah (Lions City Sailors), Safuwan Baharudin (Selangor), Shakir Hamzah (Tanjong Pagar), Tajeli Salamat (Lions City Sailors), Zulqarnaen Suzliman (Young Lions), Adam Swandi (Lion City Sailors), Anumanthan (Kedah Darul Aman), Hariss Harun (Lion City Sailors), Saifullah Akbar (Lion City Sailors), Hami Syahin (Young Lions), Shahdan Sulaiman (Lion City Sailors), Song Uiyoung (Lion City Sailors), Zulfahmi Arifin (Sukhotai), Amy Recha (Geyland International), Faris Ramli (Lion City Sailors), Ikhsan Fandi (Jerv), Ilhan Fandi (Young Lions), Gabriel Quak (Lion City Sailors), Hafiz Nor (Lion City Sailors), Shawal Anuar (Hougang United)

  Malaysia squad

  Malaysia have participated in every single one of the AFF Suzuki Cup but have only been champions once, with the 2010 cup-winning squad still commanding a lofty place amongst football fans in the country compared to the heartbreaks of losing in the final in 1996, 2014 and 2018.

  Tan Cheng Hoe took over from Eduardo Vingada with the last edition being his very first assignment as the head coach. Tan took the team all the way to the final only to narrowly lose out to Vietnam in the showpiece double header.

  Experienced Aidil Zafuan is the one tasked to lead the team but many will be looking at Safawi Rasid to rediscover his form to reclaim his place as one of the best players in the region.

  Full squad: Khairulazhan Khalid (Selangor), Khairul Fahmi Che Mat (Melaka United), Kalamullah Al-Hafiz (PJ City), Syahmi Safari (Selangor), Shahrul Saad (JDT), Aidil Zafuan (JDT), Dion Cools (Midtyjlland), Rizal Ghazali (KDA), Arif Farhan (KDA), Arif Fadzilah (Terengganu), Quentin Cheng (Penang), Dominic Tan (Police Tero), Junior Eldstal (Chonburi), Baddrol Bakhtiar (KDA), Mukhairi Ajmal (Selangor), Faisal Halim (Terengganu), Akhyar Rashid (JDT), Safawi Rasid (JDT), Syafiq Ahmad (JDT), Guilherme de Paula (JDT), Luqman Hakim (Kortrijk), Shahrel Fikri (Selangor), R.
