Last season their FA Cup adventure ended in the 2nd round.The visitors are W4-D2-L2 on the road this term. That's in the Thai League Two.
There were no winners in Nakhon Pathom's previous match, the home game that ended 1-1 vs Raj Pracha.
Before that one, a nice away victory 2-0 at Ranong United.There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Nakhon manager Sukkoki as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Trat.
The attacking power of Nakhon Pathom when travelling is not overwhelming with 5 goals scored from 8 league matches away. The Nakhon Pathom defense is a tough nut to crack, having conceded less than half a goal per away game on average ({2 goals} in 8 games).
