Thai Premier League match preview: Port versus Sukhothai

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only three days ago in the FA Cup. This match was also played here at PAT Stadium. With two consecutive home games the intense schedule is somewhat softened. Still, Sukhothai have had more rest.

Port form and stats

Port, who have the most scored goals (40) in Thai Premier League, are steadily winning Thai Premier League games and points here at PAT Stadium. 6 wins, 0 draws and 2 defeats is the summary from 8 games. Ever since the Bangkok Glass game Port has been unbeatable here at PAT Stadium producing four straight wins.

A strong away win before that one, visiting Chiangrai United and winning 2-1.

The match schedule is unforgiving for Port as they have a new game in only three days, a Thai Premier League match thankfully also at home. Buriram United are visiting.

With an average of more than two goals per home game in the league (19 in 8 games), Port's attacking play is working. Port have only conceded 7 from their league home games. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

Sukhothai form and stats

3 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses. That’s the product of Sukhothai playing as the away team in the Thai Premier League this season. It's looking increasingly bleak for Sukhothai who now has to deal with a four game losing streak. Chiangrai United was the last time a defeat was avoided. The pressure to perform on the road is increasing on S. Kongthep, the Sukhothai manager, as the last three away games were defeats.

A 1-3 defeat away at Ratchaburi before that.

With an average of more than two away goals per league game away, Sukhothai are regular goalscorers on their travels. Sukhothai have conceded 17 goals in these games.
