Pre-match comments Pathum United vs Buriram

Pathum United entered this match with a negative reputation in recent times. They have not been able to stay in the championship race despite being reinforced by many stars such as Dangda, Sarach Yooyen, Airfan Doloh, Patrik Gustavsson and especially Chanathip Songkrasin. The number of their members wearing the Thai national team shirt is even more than Buriram, the strongest team in the country.

Having disappointed with a third-place finish, Pathum United further angered fans with a 4-4 draw in their season-ending match. At home, the club led Sukhothai, a team near the relegation zone, 4-0 after half-time. But somehow, Pathum United were still held to a 4-4 draw.

The disappointment was so great that the Pathum United boss asked the players to come out in front of the fans to apologize after this performance.

The series of poor results has greatly affected Pathum United's mentality in today's match against Buriram. This promises to be a very difficult match for Chanathip's team. The opponent is getting back on track with consecutive good results while Pathum United is still struggling.

Chanathip's Pathum United are not playing well.

Form, history of confrontation Pathum United vs Buriram

In the last 6 rounds, Buriram has only lost 1 and that was an inevitable defeat against Al Ahli, the reigning champions of the Asian Cup 1. In the domestic arena, this club has reaped sweet rewards thanks to its solid defense. In the last 6 matches, this team has only conceded 2 goals. That solidity has helped Buriram gain valuable points to once again win the Thai League.

They also reached the FA Cup semi-finals and now Buriram's task is to protect their advantage to advance to the final of the Southeast Asian Cup 1, thereby completing the treble in the 2024/25 season.

In the confrontation with Buriram, Pathum United is at a disadvantage. In the last 8 matches, they lost 5 and won only 1. Among Pathum United's failures was a 1-3 loss in the first leg of the semi-finals, forcing them into a situation where they had to win against Buriram by at least 2 goals difference or more.

This club is also not confident at home as they have only won 1 match in the last 4 matches. In the context of being psychologically burdened, the squad showing signs of exhaustion due to working too hard and lacking quality reserves, it seems that Pathum United will hardly be able to create difficulties for Buriram.
