The team have good offense and defense, and even won all of their home games.
Thailand had a tough time in the semi-finals, eventually beating the Philippines at home after 120 minutes of fierce fighting to reach the finals, and the team have had a lot of problems on the defensive end recently, having conceded goals in 4 consecutive games.
However, Thailand are still superior in H2H records, so it's not easy for Vietnam to score a comfortable win at home this time.
Thus, we believe Thailand to keep unbeaten on the road.
