Jeonbuk Motors and Hoang Anh Gia Lai will battle for three points in an AFC Champions League matchday three fixture on Friday.
Motors come into the game off a 1-0 victory over Japanese side Yokohama F. Marinos. Stanislav Iljutcenko's first-half penalty proved to be the difference between the two teams.
Gia Lai, meanwhile, settled for a share of the spoils in a 1-1 draw with Sydney FC. Trent Buhagiar came off the bench to score an equaliser for the visitors with his first touch of the game to cancel out Vu Van Thanh's opener for Gia Lai.
The dropped points mean the Vietnamese side remain at the bottom of Group H, while Jeonbuk lead the way at the summit with four points.
