Bahrain U23 vs. Thailand U23: Match Preview, Where To Watch Live Asian Games, September 19, 2023

The Bahrain U23 national team will face the Thailand U23 national team in 1e ronde of the Asian Games on Tuesday, September 19, 2023. Live streaming of Bahrain U23 vs Thailand U23, preview, lineup predictions, and how to watch the match live broadcast, can be watched in this article.

Thailand U23 will face their first challenge at the 2023 Asian Games when they meet Bahrain U23 in the opening match of Group E. This match will take place on Tuesday, 19 September 2023 at the Jinhua Sports Center Stadium.

This is an opportunity for Thailand U23 to show their abilities and ambitions in the men’s soccer sport of the 2023 Asian Games. They are in a quite difficult group with the presence of Kuwait, Bahrain and South Korea. To advance to the next round, they must beat Bahrain U23 in this first match.

Bahrain U23 is a team coached by Croatian coach Dario Basic. They have two over age players, namely Sayed Adnan and Ali Adnan who are experienced at senior level. This team also consists mostly of players who recently participated in the 2024 U23 Asia qualifiers. However, they did not impress in the event and only finished third in their group.

Meanwhile, Thailand U23 came to the 2023 Asian Games without any additional players. They rely on a full strength of players under 23 years of age who have great potential. Compared to the 2024 U23 Asia qualifiers that just passed, they also experienced significant changes by retaining 10 players. What is interesting is that defender Maximilian Steinbauer is of German descent while midfielder Rattanaphum is playing in Belgium.

In the FIFA rankings, the Thai national team is in 113th place while the Bahrain national team is in 86th place. In theory, the rankings show quite a big difference in the level of professionalism between the two teams. However, the young Thai team showed superiority over the opponents in the previous encounter. At the same level, the young Thai team has achieved 2 landslide wins over Bahrain.

Comparing the strength and performance in the recent U23 Asia 2024 qualifiers as well as meeting results, Thailand U23 is more or less considered superior to Bahrain U23 in this match. Therefore, if the Southeast Asian representative wins, it is not a surprise either.
