The two sides square off on Thursday night at 7.45pm (Thai time) with Thai Rath TV (32) broadcasting the game live. After Malaysia, Thailand will next be in Vietnam, who also have seven points but lag behind the War Elephants on goal difference, for their fifth Group G game on Nov 19. The eight group winners and four best runners-up advance to the continent's 12-team final qualifying stage for the 2022 World Cup. "I am expecting six points from these two matches, but first we have to create a good result against Malaysia."
