U22 Vietnam will gather in Hanoi on November 10 before traveling to China for the Panda Cup 2025, where they will play U22 China (November 12), U22 Uzbekistan (November 15), and U22 Republic of Korea (November 18). The team will then hold a training camp in Vung Tau Ward, Ho Chi Minh City from November 23 to 29, and depart for Thailand on December 2.

Head coach Kim Sang Sik is expected to call up 26 players for the final preparation phase, including eight U22 players who joined the senior national team during the October FIFA Days.
