Weekend Preview 21/22 May

TPL
Sriracha v TOT
Chiang Rai v Thai Port
Sisaket v Osotspa Saraburi
Bec Tero v Bangkok Glass
Khon Kaen v Pattaya
Samut Songkram v PEA Buriram
Navy v TTM Pichit

The reduced fixture list means that the top clash of the weekend will be between BEC Tero and Bangkok Glass at the Thepsadin Stadium. The Fire Dragons have won 5 in a row at home and will be looking to beat a Bangkok Glass team which has struggled on the road. Their only win away from the Leo Stadium came at TTM Pichit last month.

Thai Port face the long trek up to Chiang Rai while TOT travel to play a Sriracha side that must be brimming with confidence after 2 consecutive wins. Both Thai Port and TOT have 13 points and are only 2 points above the relegation places. Goal scoring has been the problem for both sides and this needs to be addressed if they are to avoid being sucked into the relegation battle.

Division 1
PTT Rayong v Raj-Pracha
Buriram FC v Suphanburi
Chiang Mai v Songkhla
Chanthaburi   v Phuket
Thai Honda v RBAC
Customs United v JW Rangsit
Saraburi v  BBCU
Bangkok FC v Bangkok United
Air Force v Chainat

New league leaders BBCU have a tough game away to Saraburi. They are currently unbeaten and will most likely be happy if they can come away from Saraburi Stadium with that record intact. 

Ex Muangthong coach, Rene Desaeyere, takes his latest team, Suphanburi, to Buriram FC on Saturday. Rene has made it no secret that he has not been impressed with refereeing decisions on his past visits to the Thunder Castle. 

The battle of the Bangkoks will take place in Bang Mot on Sunday. Both sides are in a decent run of form so a draw may be on the cards.

Division 2 (Selected fixtures)
RajVithi v NRSU
Nontaburi v North Bangkok
Samut Prakarn Utd v Kasetsart
Chamchuri v Prachinburi
