CAHN and Buriram United meet again in the final of the ASEAN Club Cup. Previously in the group stage, the Vietnamese representative won 2-1. However, according to coach Poling , this rematch is completely different.

"The two matches were different. Compared to the group stage, Buriram United changed a lot of players and just won the Thai championship. After we beat Buriram in the group stage, the two teams entered the semi-finals and beat the teams in Group B, so the performances of the two teams were similar," said coach Polking.

Coach Polking was puzzled when CAHN did not have the advantage of playing the second leg of the final at home, he said: "We performed better in the group stage. I do not understand why CAHN did not get to play the second leg at home. Why is the most important match, the second leg, at the opponent's field?".

Evaluating Buriram United, CAHN captain said: "Suphanat is a good player, and his absence is a loss for Buriram. But they still have many excellent players, Thai national players and foreign players. They have depth. Buriram is a very famous team in the region".

"Hopefully both teams will play a good match with high quality. In the previous semi-final, we received support from the audience and hope tomorrow will be the same," Coach Polking concluded.

Meanwhile, Buriram United coach Osmar Loss Vieira expressed confidence: "Our goal is the championship. This will be a long match with two legs. Buriram knows how to handle the pressure because they are so used to big matches.

CAHN is one of the two strongest teams in this tournament when they participate in the final match. They won the absolute number of points in the group stage, have a solid defense, a very well-organized and methodical midfield. It is difficult for us to press them. But this is the last match, decided by the fighting spirit of the players."
