Faithful Pattani fans rush to install the app to watch the historic FA Cup showdown against Buriram.
The passion for the "Langsuka Guns" Pattani FC has reached a peak as many fans flocked to AIS stores seeking advice and installing the AIS PLAY app to prepare for watching the live broadcast of the major cup match. Their beloved team is set to play a historic away game against the "Thunder Castle" Buriram United in the 2025/26 Chang FA Cup round of 16, which will kick off at 18:00 on Wednesday, 14 January at Chang Arena.
This fervor follows Pattani FC's impressive performance in the round of 32, where they made history by upsetting the strong Nakhon Ratchasima FC 2-0 on 21 December 2025, cheered on by over 12,000 fans filling Pattani Provincial Administrative Organization Stadium to capacity. Meanwhile, their next opponent Buriram United, the defending champions and Thai League giants, showed their strength by thrashing Customs United 5-1 in the previous round.
This match marks a new milestone for Pattani FC as it is the first official meeting between the two clubs in a national tournament. Although both teams have maintained good relations through Buriram United's "Seo Krao" squad regularly conducting preseason tours in the three southern border provinces, this encounter will be a knockout battle for a place in the quarterfinals, generating great excitement and expectations among local fans.
However, due to the distance requiring the team to travel to Buriram province, many Pattani fans who cannot attend the match in person are preparing by downloading and installing the live broadcast app to send their support via screens and not miss any crucial moments of this historic game. The excitement can be watched live on the AIS PLAY app from 18:00 on Wednesday, 14 January.
