Chonburi FC Remains Bottom of Thai League After Defeat to Prachuap
Chonburi FC's losing streak continues despite a managerial change, while Sukhothai FC secures a dominant victory in the latest Thai League 1 action.
On October 17, 2026, Chonburi FC faced a difficult home match at Chonburi Daikin Stadium against PT Prachuap FC. Despite appointing technical director Withaya Laohakul as interim head coach following a five-game losing streak, the team failed to secure a result. Chonburi initially took the lead in the 18th minute through Stenio Junior and appeared close to doubling their advantage in the 61st minute, though the goal was disallowed following a VAR review for a prior foul.
PT Prachuap FC capitalized on the momentum shift, with Bernardo Vilar equalizing in the 74th minute. Edgar Mendez then scored the decisive goal in the 90th minute, handing Chonburi a 2-1 defeat. This result leaves Chonburi FC at the bottom of the Thai League 1 table, having now lost six consecutive matches. In other league action, Sukhothai FC recorded a significant victory over Rasisalai.
For residents and visitors, these results highlight the ongoing volatility in the Thai League 1 standings. While the match provided high-stakes entertainment for local football fans, the long-term impact of Chonburi’s managerial transition remains to be seen. Supporters should monitor official club announcements for updates on future coaching appointments and team performance improvements as the season progresses.
