Ulsan Hyundai and Pathum United continue their AFC Champions League journey at the Thammasat Stadium following winning starts.
Lukas Hinterseer’s goal in the stoppage time propelled Ulsan to a narrow 1-0 away win over Viettel on Matchday 1, stretching their unbeaten run in all competitions to 11 straight games (W6, D5). Defensively robust, Ulsan kept six clean sheets during that 11-match sequence, though they conceded 2+ goals in three of the other five fixtures. Since going down 1-0 to Jeonbuk in October 2020, the hosts have gone unbeaten in their subsequent 17 matches on home turf (W11, D6 – 90 minutes only), registering four shutouts in their last six such contests. Equally impressive at the other end of the pitch, Hong Myung-bo’s men have found the net in five consecutive home games, netting 2+ goals on three occasions in the process.
Meanwhile, Pathum United dismantled Kaya 4-1 at home in their Group F opener, scoring twice in each half to bounce back from a tight 1-0 away loss to Muang Thong United in the domestic championship. That defeat represents Pathum’s lone reverse this calendar year, with the ‘Rabbits’ winning 11 of their remaining 14 matches in all competitions since the turn of 2021 (D3). Low scoring has been a theme in United’s recent competitive away fixtures, with six of the last seven featuring under 2.5 total goals (W5, D1, L1). Ahead of the kick-off, Aurelio Vidmar’s men have suffered a dip in form, going from 12 successive victories away from home to back-to-back trips without winning (D1, L1), failing to score before half-time on both occasions.
