Group F will open at the historic 82-year-old Dolen Omurzakov Stadium in Bishkek with a match between hosts Kyrgyz Republic and Myanmar, the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) informed in a release on Thursday.

Thailand, Mongolia, Vietnam, Singapore, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan, Guam and Jordan are some of the top teams in action in the qualifiers in which 29 teams were allocated to five groups of four teams and three groups of three teams, with teams seeded according to their performance in the 2019 AFC U-16 Women's Championship final tournament and qualification.
