Taxonomy upgrade extras: 

All matches start at 6pm unless stated otherwise.

We’re at the halfway stage already! It’s hard to believe but the first half of the season will be completed with this weekend’s fixtures. That said, there is still plenty to pack in to the second half of the campaign including the FA Cup and League Cup competitions.

There’s plenty going on in and around the capital this weekend, though, so no excuses for not getting a final dose of live football before the midseason break. Bangkok Glass, who started the season poorly, come up against second place Chonburi at the Leo Stadium (TRUE Sport 102) and could move to within a point of the Sharks with a win. Also on Sunday in Nonthaburi, Muangthong United, who beat Police United 3-1 on Wednesday night, will take BG’s third place if they beat Pattaya at the Yamaha Stadium (TRUE 161) and Chonburi leave Pathum Thani with at least a point.

On Saturday Thai Port bring a turbulent first half of the season to an end with a home match against Khon Kaen (TRUE 102, 4pm). This will also be a chance to say goodbye to their hugely successful head coach Sasom Pobpraserd who’s leaving to become part of the Newin football revolution by joining Division one side Buriram F.C after this game. Elsewhere on Saturday, Siam Navy host Sriracha and Buriram PEA are at home to Chiang Rai (NBT 11).

On Sunday TOT will play a one-off game at the Army Stadium in Din Daeng before their anticipated move back to their home ground in Chaeng Wattana; BEC Tero who fired their coach this week after a terrible run are the visitors (TRUE Sport Preview 9). Army are away at Samut Songkhram and Police United are at Osotspa Saraburi (T-Sport).

The main Division 1 games of note this weekend include BBCU’s derby with Air Force United at the Army Stadium on Saturday, and Bangkok United’s clash with Saraburi F.C at Bangkok University, Rangsit on Sunday. Bangkok F.C have to make the long journey to Chiang Mai.

The second leg of TPL and Division 1 fixtures gets underway on the weekend of 2nd/3rd July, but there is some action on the pitch before then. Army are at home to Chonburi on June 25th and Muangthong host Sisaket on the 26th  in a couple of postponed TPL matches, and all TPL and Division 1 clubs have League Cup first round matches on June 18th. More details on those fixtures nearer the time.
