Chantaburi battled to a hard-earned point against one of the league favourites, with a big crowd turning out at an increasingly impressive-looking Kleeb Bua Stadium. But it was a night when John Baggio didn’t bring his shooting boots. Actually, nobody did.

Kasetsart went to the bottom of the table after this home defeat to Uttaradit and are now the only team in T2 with zero points. But take nothing away from the newly-promoted Uttaradit. This was a convincing win for The Broken Sword — and one much enjoyed by their impressive away following.
Kasetsart were bloody awful.

Phrae had the best of the goalscoring chances in this Hua Ma Stadium stalemate, but both teams are still looking for their first win of the season.
Nakhon Pathom’s interesting green away kit provides their players with camouflage against the pitch. Could that become a secret weapon in future games?

Khon Kaen continued their impressive start to the season with a convincing 3-0 home win. An early own goal helped them on their way, with Veerapong and Rosalvo adding to the scoreline in the second half.

Another result to file under ‘we didn’t see this one coming’ as Songkhla went down 3-1 in a local derby at the Tinsulanonda.
When Mosquito set up Nobparut for Songkhla’s 5th minute opener, perhaps a routine home win was on the cards, but PT Satun tore up the script, scoring three goals in a blistering final 25 minutes.

Muangthong opened their T2 home account with a narrow win over Nongbua. Sarayut Yoosuebchua was the Muangthong hero, coming on as an 83rd minute substitute and grabbing the winner some four minutes later.
People have written off The Kirins, but once they sort out their internal issues and add their new signings to a threadbare squad, they can beat anyone in this league. Write them off at your peril.

Police Tero went to the top of the table with a comfortable victory at Pattaya United, and maintained their 100% start to the season. Valdo Soares headed Tero into the lead after 10 minutes, before Kei Sano and Theerapat capitalised on some poor Pattaya defending to increase the scoreline early in the second half.
Pattaya looked worryingly out of sorts all evening.
