Chinese Taipei vs Thailand: Prediction, Head-to-Head, Odds & Stats (Tue, 14 Oct '25)

The thrilling encounter in the AFC Asian Cup Qualifiers is set for Tuesday, 14th October '25, promising an exciting clash between Chinese Taipei and Thailand. But how do these teams stack up against each other in recent history? In the past trio of meetings, both teams have shared the glory equally: Chinese Taipei securing a victory, Thailand clinching a win, and a single draw leaving supporters on the edge. Their last face-off, however, saw Thailand triumph with a convincing 2-0 victory on home turf, setting the stage for Chinese Taipei to seek retribution.

The performance of individual players could well determine the outcome of this anticipated match. H. Hsu stands out for Chinese Taipei as their top goal scorer this season, yet this lone goal highlights the team’s challenge in finding the net. On the other hand, Thailand’s creative playmaker T. Bunmathan, leading with assists, has been instrumental in their attacking prowess. Will these key players rise to the occasion, or will the match take a different turn?

Examining the player ratings and team stats adds another layer to this tactical face-off. For Chinese Taipei, Shin-an Shih tops their ratings with 7.55, closely followed by Heng-Pin Hsu with 7.5. Thailand showcases stronger individual performances with Bunmathan at an impressive 8.1, closely watched by Teerasil Dangda who holds a solid 7.65. Given this edge, what are the implications for the teams’ tactical approaches?

The difference in playing style is evident when you consider possession: Chinese Taipei averages only 32.3% possession, in stark contrast to Thailand's dominant 66.7%. This disparity raises the question of how Chinese Taipei will counter Thailand's control of the game. Can Taiwanese resilience and discipline—a clean sheet of just four yellow cards—turn the tide against Thailand’s similar disciplinary record?

Ultimately, all statistics point towards Thailand having a slight upper hand. Their stronger individual performances, recent victory, and commanding possession percentage suggest they may once again come out on top. While Chinese Taipei will look to shake off past results and mount an aggressive response, the odds seem tilted in favor of a Thailand victory, provided they maintain their form and capitalize on their offensive strengths.
