Thailand vs Saudi Arabia - preview #RoadToRussia WC 2018
Bangkok: Saudi Arabia travel to bottom side Thailand on Thursday looking to cement their place on top of the standings by dealing the War Elephants their fifth defeat in six games.
The Saudis’ last trip east resulted in a 2-1 loss in Japan in November in what was their only defeat of the qualifying campaign to date, while Bert van Marwijk’s team overcame Thailand 1-0 in the corresponding fixture.
Thailand, meanwhile, secured their first point in Group B in a 2-2 draw with Australia at Rajamangala Stadium in November and will now look to continue their momentum into Matchday Six.
