Kathmandu, July 7 -- Nepal are set to host Bangladesh in two international friendly matches on September 6 and 9 at the Dashrath Stadium in Kathmandu.

Both matches fall under the FIFA International Window, the All Nepal Football Association said.

The friendlies will serve as crucial preparations for Nepal ahead of their remaining matches in the AFC Asian Cup Qualifiers.

Nepal have been drawn in Group F alongside Malaysia, Laos, and Vietnam. The team has so far played two matches in the group stage but are yet to register a point, having lost both encounters.

Nepal are next scheduled to face Vietnam away from home on October 9 as part of the ongoing qualifiers.
