Preparatory tournaments in Thailand and in the grand final, host Tsagrai will face Vietnam Champion Hanoi, which is one of the four foreign teams hosted in this tournament this year.
Since last July, Tsagrai (5η in the championship) records only one defeat, on 5/9/17 by the champion Buriram, which, however, won 3-2 in the cup final on 27/10/17.
For its part, Hanoi won the championship in Vietnam for a walk, while in its own results we see only one defeat in 19 games and this was the last (and of course indifferent) game of the championship. Although she came to the tournament without the eight (!) Internationals, she managed to reach the final, beating Rayong 4-2 (newcomer to the Thai big league).
Will he succeed today? It is not ruled out, however, that giving a favorite against a strong team that will have the advantage of home, challenges me to oppose it.
