Looking back at their last meeting in Feb 21, it was Khonkaen United who defeated Navy FC 2-0, but crossing paths in this FA Cup tie comes under completely different circumstances and team conditions. The hosts recently secured a 2-0 home victory over Police Tero FC in Thai League Two on 19 Sep. Despite holding home advantage, their defense often struggles with lapses in concentration, with Khonkaen United conceding 31% of their total goals during the 76-90 minute mark, meaning games are not always easy to close out. If Navy can stay compact and hold out early on, the pressure will immediately shift onto the hosts. Should the visitors manage to score first, it could force the home side to open up, leading to a much closer contest than expected.
