Chonburi FC host Buriram United in the Thai Premier League tonight. In their last league match on 13 Sep, they lost 2-3 at home to Rayong, while Buriram had just returned from the AFC Champions League Elite on 15 Sep, where they drew 1-1 away at Johor Darul Ta'zim. The two teams' situations are therefore very different — the hosts just dropped a game they should have taken points from, while the visitors just came off a heavy continental match and must travel straight into another away fixture. Chonburi FC clearly have a problem closing out games. The goals they concede come in clusters in the second half, especially late on when they often let opponents equalise or overtake them. Buriram United, meanwhile, remain dangerous throughout the whole match, though their late defending also shows weaknesses. The hosts' last league outing was a picture of how much they must watch themselves if the game drags on. If Chonburi FC score first, the game changes instantly, because Buriram will have to push more men forward to hit back, which will open space for the hosts to counter. And that is the path by which this game is more likely to end tight than many people think.
