The Thai League Two league table might not tell the truth so early on, but it's the best truth we have so far. Ranong United and Khonkaen are placed 9th and 17th respectively.
It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Ranong and Khonkaen.
Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 1000 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.
Ranong United form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for Ranong United's two home games in the Thai League Two so far this season, having collected 3 points here at Ranong Stadium.
An away draw last time out for Ranong United, facing Uthai Thani in a game that ended 1-1. Before that game, the 2-1 home victory against Samut Sakhon.
Another home game is coming up fairly shortly for the hosts, as Chainat Hornbill are coming to town in three days.
Early season league goal statistics from Ranong United's 2 home games: 2 goals, 2 conceded.
Khonkaen form and stats
The Thai League Two season is young and Khonkaen, who have the fewest scored goals (1) in Thai League Two, have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 1 draw and 2 defeats so far. Khonkaen seem to be suffering from homesickness with two consecutive losses away. Third time lucky?
Khonkaen aren't clicking offensively as they have gone 360 league minutes without a goal. S. Sugishita was the last player to find the net.
Khonkaen lost away at Udon Thani (0-1) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. A draw for Khonkaen before that, at their own venue hosting Chiangmai United (0-0).
A quick return to home after this game, as Khonkaen are hosting Sisaket in the Thai League Two only four days away.
Khonkaen are seemingly not capable of scoring regularly on their travels in the league. They have only managed 1 goal from 3 away games. As opposed to that, Khonkaen have seen the ball go into their own net 3 times on the road.
