The EAFF E-1 Football Championship 2025 will see the final matchday between China and Hong Kong looking to avoid the bottom spot. These teams will clash at the Yongin Mireu Stadium in South Korea, with both teams losing their first two matches of the tournament. Our match prediction is of a low-scorer with under 2.5 goals likely.
China and Hong Kong are stuck to the bottom two spots after losing to South Korea and Japan in their respective matches. China are only marginally above with a negative goal difference of seven compared to negative seven for Hong Kong.
After a 3-0 defeat to hosts South Korea in the opening game of the tournament, China were beaten 2-0 by Japan in the second matchday. The scoreline was kept to a respectable limit, although the Chinese were helped by Japan’s rotated squad.
These results make it five defeats in the last six for China, worryingly all the defeats coming without scoring.
Hong Kong are only marginally better in terms of scoring, netting their only goal of this tournament on matchday one, a 6-1 defeat to Japan. They were beaten 2-0 by South Korea on matchday two, making it a third defeat in the last five games.
Interestingly, Hong Kong have only suffered three defeats in their last seven fixtures (W2, D2, L3).

Our China PR vs Hong Kong Prediction
China and Hong Kong have clearly struggled to contain the might of Japan and South Korea, as the league standings indicate. This match is their chance to avoid the wooden spoon, but it is unlikely to spur them into instant action. China has been struggling for goals, even before this tournament, and are unlikely to trouble Hong Kong. Along the same lines, Hong Kong’s recent matches have seen them struggle to score, more often resulting in low scores.
That trend could continue here, and our China PR vs Hong Kong prediction is under 2.5.
