Thailand faces a crucial match against Chinese Taipei on October 14, 2025 to secure qualification for the 2027 Asian Cup.
Thailand should prove itself against Chinese Taipei – a key game!
The Thai national team faces a crucial encounter in the exciting race to qualify for the 2027 Asian Cup. Next October 14, Thailand will face Chinese Taipei and there will be no room for error. After a disappointing 3-1 defeat against Turkmenistan in June, Thailand faces exclusion from the tournament. But hope blossoms after Turkmenistan lost to Sri Lanka in their last game. This gives Thailand the chance to win Group D, especially since Thailand, Sri Lanka and Turkmenistan currently have 6 points each. To maintain their chances, Thailand desperately need a win against Chinese Taipei to secure qualification and further their ambitions.
However, the situation of the Thai offensive is a cause for concern. Top striker Teerasil Dangda is injured and Supachai is also unavailable. In the last game against Chinese Taipei, Thailand only managed to score two goals in the second half, and the experts' expectations are high: they are optimistic that Thailand will come out of this game with three points. The direct comparison also speaks in Thailand's favor, as Chinese Taipei has only won once in the last five meetings, while Thailand has had the upper hand three times.
Motivation and pressure
“We have to win all the remaining games,” emphasized captain Chanathip Songkrasin. He understands the pressure that comes with qualifying and emphasizes the importance of mental preparation. “Patience is key,” says Chanathip, pointing out that a cool head could be crucial in such high-pressure situations. Thailand recently won 2-0 against Chinese Taipei and this success gives the players extra confidence. In terms of competition, Thailand and Sri Lanka are at the top of the table, with the crucial spot still open on goal difference.
This crucial game not only offers the opportunity to qualify, but also the chance to excite the fans. Thai football fans can look forward to an exciting duel in which the players have to give everything to get the points they need.
