This round of the FA Cup brings Kasetsart up against Chanthaburi in a game the two must settle in a single match, with no second leg for a do-over. Cup games like this often make teams from different league levels open up and trade blows more than expected, because there are no points to collect and nothing to protect. Kasetsart have gone through spells where they don't score often, but their defence hasn't collapsed in alarming fashion either, while Chanthaburi look the more consistent side in their own competition, and their latest 2-0 win made their game look steadier. Based on the expected line-ups, both sides should field something close to their strongest available eleven. The game is likely to start with Kasetsart trying to settle and not open up gaps first, while Chanthaburi gradually push the game up and hold slightly more of the ball, in line with the control figures leaning toward the away side. If the first half ends without a goal, the second half should see Chanthaburi open up and attack harder, pressing continuously and creating more chances than in the early part of the game.
