Thailand and Kyrgyzstan will meet again in the AFC Asian Cup 1st round at the Abdullah bin Nasser bin Khalifa Stadium Stadium, Doha Tuesday, January 16, 2024. Here’s the preview, h2h stats, predicted line-up, TV channel info, live streaming service providers and how to watch online.
Thailand, known as the “War Elephants”, have experienced several challenges in their preparations for the 2023 Asian Cup. They fired coach Alexandre Polking after just two matches in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers. In their last five matches, Thailand has managed just one win, against Singapore, while they lost three matches and drew one match.
However, Thailand did not give up. They are trying to make changes in leadership with the aim of improving performance in the 2023 Asian Cup. Their new coach, Masatada Ishii from Japan, has worked hard to help this team. Unfortunately, in their last friendly match before leaving for Qatar, Thailand lost 0-5 to Japan.
On the other hand, Kyrgyzstan have shown significant improvement since new coach Stefan Tarkovic took over in mid-2023. They have played in 12 matches since June 2023, winning three matches, losing eight matches and drawing one match. Their most impressive win was when they beat Oman 1-0 in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers.
Kyrgyzstan also just beat Vietnam with a score of 2-1 in their last friendly match before the Asian Cup. This shows that they are in good condition and ready for the match against Thailand.
Seeing that the positions of the two teams in the world ranking are not too far apart, with Thailand in 113th position and Kyrgyzstan in 98th position, this match is expected to be a fierce match. Thailand, despite having some experienced players, will face a big challenge against rising star Kyrgyzstan.
However, the opening match always has its own pressure and can be an obstacle for both teams to show their best abilities. Even though Thailand has less stable preparations, they have a chance to surprise Kyrgyzstan.
On the other hand, Kyrgyzstan will try to take advantage of their positive momentum to achieve victory. So, don’t miss watching this Group F match which will be broadcast live streaming!
