BG Pathum United vs Port

BG Pathum United will be looking to stay on the upwards trajectory when they take on Port in an exciting Thai FA Cup last-16 tie at the BG Stadium.

Pathum United came from a 1-0 HT deficit to hold Muang Thong United to a 2-2 away draw at the weekend, extending their unbeaten run in all competitions to five games (W2, D3). What’s more, the hosts have gone from strength to strength since falling to back-to-back home defeats in early October, winning their last four matches at the BG Stadium by an aggregate score of 5-1, three of which yielded the same 1-0 scoreline. It’s worth noting that each of their five goals scored in that five-game sequence arrived before the hour mark, highlighting Pathum’s quick-fire ability. The ‘Rabbits’ will feel confident about their progression prospects after winning three of their last four top-flight H2Hs at home turf (D1) and keeping a clean sheet twice in that period.

As for Port, a run of back-to-back competitive travels without scoring (D2 – 90 mins only) douses their optimism of claiming their first competitive win at the BG Stadium since October 2014. But the visitors are unbeaten in their last five away games in all competitions (W3, D2), keeping four clean sheets in the process. Entertainment has been at a premium in Port’s recent matches, with each of the last four featuring under 2.5 total goals and three of them seeing one or both sides fail to get on the scoresheet. If it’s worth something, each of their last five scoring games has seen the opening goal come in the first half. Since six of their previous eight matches have seen at least one side fail to find the net, scoring first could be of the utmost importance here.
