New Year's gift for fans: "Akthaporn Chalithaporn" hopes to surprise by leading the team to a home win over "Buriram United" in the Thai League.
Updates on the "Fire Bat" squad, Sukhothai FC, who are scheduled to play the postponed 15th match of the 2025-26 BYD CYLION Six League, hosting the "Thunder Castle" Buriram United on Wednesday, 24 December 2025 at 18:00 GMT+7 at Thalay Luang Stadium.
Recently, “Coach Donut” Akthaporn Chalithaporn, head coach of Sukhothai FC, revealed that the team is quite complete. Although we just played in the Chang FA Cup, we rested key players in several positions to be ready for this game, allowing us to set up our tactics appropriately.
"Facing Buriram is certainly a tough task for any team. Even though we are playing at home, we must focus on discipline and defensive solidity, minimizing mistakes as much as possible. This week there is also a League Cup match; Buriram may rotate players, but their reserve strength is still far better than ours. Still, I deeply hope we can provide a surprise as a New Year's gift to our fans."
“This game is against the top team in the league. Even though it is a midweek match, I invite Sukhothai fans to come and cheer for us in large numbers. We will do our best for the fans' happiness. Regarding team reinforcements, we will evaluate the situation after this match to decide on any additions.”
