Why fans believe in victory
One of the important factors that makes fans believe in Vietnam's victory is the strength of the team under the leadership of coach Kim Sang-sik. The Vietnamese team has shown stability in terms of tactics, especially in big matches, with flexibility in both attack and defense.
Besides, the Vietnamese players are in good form and have a determined fighting spirit. With the added confidence from the first leg victory, the Vietnamese team has all the necessary elements to create a positive result at Rajamangala.

Thailand: Big challenge but not insurmountable
However, the Thai team is still a very strong opponent. With a long history of achievements and a quality squad, the Golden Temple team will certainly not easily accept defeat at home. They will have enthusiastic support from the fans, and this is a factor that helps them maintain their mental strength in big matches.
However, many believe that Thailand may have difficulty facing a disciplined and tactically sharp Vietnam. Moreover, Thailand also face great pressure as they cannot afford to lose at Rajamangala if they want to retain the AFF Cup trophy.

Although Thailand has the home field advantage, with the current form of the Vietnamese team, along with their confidence and high fighting spirit, a victory for the away team is not too surprising. The second leg of the AFF Cup 2024 final will be a dramatic and challenging match, but with careful preparation, the Vietnamese team can confidently aim for a victory right in Bangkok to win the Southeast Asian championship for the third time in history.
