- Sukhothai have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.
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 Chiangrai and Sukhothai.

Chiangrai United form and stats
Chiangrai United have collected 24 points from their Thai Premier League home games so far after 7-3-3. It’s been three wins in a row for Chiangrai here at Singha Stadium, hoping to make this one the fourth consecutive victory.
It's back home for Chiangrai, who return with a good feeling about themselves after beating Muang Thong United away with the result 3-2. Cho Ji-Hun, T. Srisai and S. Lee-Oh found the net in that victory. Before that game, the 2-0 home victory against BEC Tero Sasana.
The game against Muang Thong United had lots of late drama as Chiangrai came back from being down 0-2 and finally secured the victory through T. Srisai's goal in the 90th minute.
Chiangrai United are traveling soon after this match as the Thai Premier League match at Port awaits in four days.
A decent goal production from Chiangrai in their home games so far, with 22 goals from 13 league matches. 15 goals have been conceded.
Sukhothai form and stats
Sukhothai have only collected 10 points from their away games in the Thai Premier League, after 3-1-8 (12 played). Bitter travels for Sukhothai as they have lost eight games in a row away from home. The last time they avoided an away-from-home loss was the Bangkok United match.
The supporters enjoyed Sukhothai's previous game versus Rayong (placed 16th), a Thai Premier League 5-1 win played at home. Preceding that game, the 0-3 loss visiting Buriram United's place.
As you can tell from the results above, Sukhothai was very dominant against Rayong, winning the match with a scoreline that even the finest fortune teller couldn't predict. 5-1 (!) with J. Rakotonomenjanahary, E. Chaobut, Ibson Melo and L. James providing the goals.
Sukhothai has another fixture away, a Thai Premier League game, against Chonburi in just four days. A tough schedule for the visitors!
Sukhothai find the net regularly in their away games. 16 goals from 12 away fixtures in the league. It's been trouble in front of goal recently, as only 0 of these goals has been scored in their last three away matches. The Sukhothai manager S. Kongthep has some worries about the defense as 28 goals have been conceded in these travels.
