Match Stats

Thailand:

Four years ago, Thailand broke a half-century drought, progressing beyond the Asian Cup group stage for the first time since 1972. Since then, they've secured consecutive ASEAN Football Federation (AFF) titles and are well-placed in the 2026 World Cup qualifying, sitting second after two matches. However, a managerial change from Alexandre Polking to Masatada Ishii has not yielded positive results so far, with Thailand suffering a 5-0 defeat in Ishii's debut. They've conceded 17 goals in their last five matches, but historical encounters suggest they have an edge over Kyrgyzstan, whom they defeated 3-1 in a 2001 friendly.


Kyrgyzstan: 

Kyrgyzstan, on the other hand, made a strong debut at the 2019 Asian Cup, reaching the last 16. Under new coach Stefan Tarkovic, the team is unbeaten this year, including a 2-1 win over Vietnam. Despite a challenging start in World Cup qualifiers, losing 4-3 to Malaysia after squandering a 3-1 lead, they bounced back with a 1-0 victory over Oman. Facing tournament favorites Saudi Arabia in the second match adds pressure on Kyrgyzstan to secure points against Thailand and stay competitive for the second spot in the group.


Analysis:

Saranon Anuin is the lone Thailand player without an international appearance in this match, while Santiphap Channgom earned his second cap in their recent defeat to Japan. Theerathon Bunmathan is set to make his 90th appearance, with a chance to move up to seventh in the all-time cap list. Three Kyrgyzstan players, Sultan Chomoev, Amantur Shamurzaev, and Eldiyar Zarypbekov, are in line for their international debuts. Captain Kayrat Zhyrgalbek uulu leads the team with 65 caps, aiming to contribute to Kyrgyzstan's success alongside goal-scorers Ayzar Akmatov and Joel Kojo, who notched his second international goal in the recent win over Vietnam.
