TPO - Football commentary for the 2027 Asian Cup qualifiers, Turkmenistan vs Thailand at 10:00 p.m. on June 10 - team information, expected lineup, form, history of confrontation. The match between Turkmenistan and Thailand is considered the final of Group D to determine the top spot. With stable form and experience, Thailand is rated higher than the home team.

Prediction before the match Turkmenistan vs Thailand

Turkmenistan began their 2027 Asian Cup qualifying campaign with a hard-fought 2-1 win over Chinese Taipei. It took the Greens until the 48th minute to open the scoring through Elman Tagayev, before they lost their advantage in the 63rd minute and Yazgulych Gurbanov's precious goal in the 83rd minute sealed the victory. Looking back at their performance in Kaohsiung, Turkmenistan had serious problems with ball control and were unable to maintain rhythm and concentration over the 90 minutes. However, the result was important, helping them move to the top of Group D.

Part of the reason is that Turkmenistan do not play regularly. They only played two games last year and the recent match against Chinese Taipei was their first in 2025. However, in the match against Thailand, the Greens received support from the home crowd and their strong attacking style and determination meant that they could cause some trouble for Thailand.

On the Thai side, coach Masatada Ishii and his team have shown excellent form with 3 consecutive victories against Afghanistan, Sri Lanka and India. The War Elephants showed a quick recovery after the defeat in the final of the ASEAN Cup 2024 against Vietnam. They are truly a well-organized team and ensure a balance between attack and defense.

Compared to Turkmenistan, Thailand is very strong in ball possession, disciplined and sharp in every attack. They also have a lot of international experience to control the match effectively.
