During India’s campaign opener against Bangladesh on October 4, the most successful team of the tournament, India suffered a much-criticised 1-1 draw against the weaker 10-man Bangladesh side. Meanwhile, Sri Lanka lost their first match to Bangladesh 0-1 in the opening match of the tournament. They suffered their second defeat at the hands of Nepal, by losing the match 2-3 on October 4 and will look to perform well against the seven times SAFF Championship winner India.

The 2021 edition of the tournament is being played between five teams; India, Nepal, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and the Maldives, with Bhutan and Pakistan not featuring in this edition. As a result, the tournament is being played in a round-robin format, where the top two teams in the tournament will proceed to the finals. The tournament is a preparation for India to test its combinations, for the third round of the 2023 AFC Asian Cup Qualifiers, which takes place in February 2022.
