Port vs Suphanburi

Port and Suphanburi are set to trade tackles in a mid-table Thai League 1 encounter at the PAT Stadium.

It’s been a thoroughly underwhelming start to the new calendar year for Port, as they’ve gone winless in all six competitive fixtures since the turn of 2022 (D3, L3 – 90 mins only). Though they take the field on the back of three consecutive defeats in all competitions, it’s worth noting that each of those failures came away from home. Indeed, the ‘Port Lions’ have performed far better at home, going unbeaten in their last three competitive fixtures at the PAT Stadium (W2, D1). But entertainment has been relatively sparse in their recent home games as seven of their previous eight such contests featured under 2.5 total goals. Against this backdrop, their last two H2H meetings with Suphanburi at home have each contained 4+ overall goals (W2).

Unlike their hosts, Suphanburi have enjoyed more than a decent start to 2022, suffering just one defeat from their six competitive fixtures since the calendar year flipped to 2022 (W4, D1 – 90 mins only). Coming into this encounter, the visitors have put together two consecutive wins in the Thai Ligue 1, scoring either side of half-time on each occasion. What’s more, the ‘War Elephants’ have been a permanent threat in the front third in their recent away action, netting 2+ goals five of their last six road trips across all competitions (W4, L2). Delivering action from the get-go, Adebayo Gbadebo’s men have registered a clear majority (66%) of their away league goals scored this season in the second half of play (6/9).
