In the final match of Group C action at the Asian Cup, Hong Kong will battle Palestine on Tuesday at Abdullah bin Khalifa Stadium.
The Dragons remained at the bottom of that group after a narrow 1-0 defeat versus Iran on Friday, with the Palestinians moving a point above them thanks to a 1-1 draw with the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
That has been the story of their Asian Cup campaign so far, with the lowest-seeded side still seeking their first point of the competition this year.
Since claiming a stunning 2-1 triumph in a friendly over China on New Year's Day, Hong Kong have suffered four successive defeats in all competitions, scoring a goal or fewer each time.
While they have made life difficult for their opponents, Jorn Andersen's men have also made things hard on themselves, conceding the opening goal in eight successive matches in all competitions.
