Prachuap boss eyes victory over Chainat

PT Prachuap coach Thawatchai Dumrong-ongtrakul is confident his team will pick up their third Thai League 1 win this season when they face Chainat tonight.

Thawatchai is hoping for a better performance from Prachuap at their Sam Aoh Stadium as Jitpanya Thisud and Nattapol Malaphan, who were sidelined by a contractual clause for last weekend's match against defending champions Buriram United, return for the Chainat game.

"Although we lost to Buriram, our players remain full of confidence. In any case, I have told the players to forget about that result and focus on Chainat," said Thawatchai. "It is not going to be easy against Chainat -- they are unbeaten in their first three league games this season."

Chainat coach Dennis Amato said: "This will be another tough game for us.

"We have drawn three matches so far and it is time we start winning. However, we will be content with a draw in this away tie because Prachuap are having a good run.

"We will stick to the same squad that drew with Chiang Rai last week."

Meanwhile, Buriram United coach Bozidar Bandovic praised his team for their 1-0 win over South Korea's Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors in an AFC Champions League Group G battle on Wednesday.

The match-winning goal for Buriram was scored by young Supachok Sarachart in the second half.

"It was a great game for us and our players did well, not only tactically and physically, but also mentally," said Bandovic.

"I think we deserved to win this game. We played with discipline and passion, and defensively we were excellent."
