Udon Thani lost their last game at Raj Pracha (placed 13th) after a 0-1 scoreline. The defeat against Raj Pracha was especially painful as the deciding goal against was scored two minutes into stoppage time (by Oliveira).

Trat form and stats

The story so far for the visiting team on their Thai League Two travels is 4 wins, 4 draws and 6 defeats. The fact that Trat have won four matches in a row should scare the hosts and makes this contest more interesting.

Trat had fun at their own home (Udon Thani Institute of PE Stadium) last time out, beating Ranong United 6-0. Thongkot, Eggres and dos Santos scored. As mentioned above, Trat was the only team on the pitch versus Ranong United in their previous game, winning 6-0. This could be a tougher task. dos Santos certainly enjoyed Trat's last game versus Ranong United, appearing multiple times in the match report with three goals and the 6-0 victory.

Prior to that result Trat won their away game at Chainat Hornbill. The scoreline was 2-1.

After this away game Trat return home for a Thai League Two game against Chiangmai. That game is only three sleeps after this.

Trat are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 18 away goals from 14 games (in the league). Trat have conceded 23 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

Trat have won at least one point in the last 5 fixtures (4-1-0) versus Udon Thani.

Trat - Udon Thani 1-1 was the product when this pair of sides last met, earlier this season.
