Khonkaen United form and stats

Khonkaen United have only collected 14 points from their away games in the Thai Premier League, after 4-2-8 (14 played).

Khonkaen United play their second straight away game, having lost the previous one 1-2 to Samut Prakan City (placed 14th). Which player has scored three matches in a row for the away side? The answer is Melo and that is solid stuff!

Ahead of that match was the away draw versus True Bangkok United that ended 2-2.

Khonkaen are the outsiders in this one, but not by much. Their performance in similar games (being the away team and moderate outsiders) is four wins, two draws and three defeats. From a total of nine matches.

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Khonkaen United have scored 15 goals in 14 league games away. Khonkaen's defence is not exactly unbeatable as they have conceded 23 goals from these trips.
