A mouthwatering clash awaits as reigning champions Thailand conclude their Group A campaign at home to Cambodia, and all it takes is a single point to secure a precious spot in the semi-finals of the AFF Mitsubishi Electric Cup 2022.
Cambodia sit third in Group A, breathing down the War Elephant’s neck with just a point separating the two sides. With qualification still on the cards for the Angkor warriors, you can bet your bottom dollar that Keisuke Honda’s men will go at the six-time ASEAN champions at full throttle.
Though both sides have not met each other in recent times, it will be Alexandré Pölking’s side who will step into the fixture as heavy favourites.
