Team Analysis
In the World Cup qualifying group C, Thailand is all set to host Singapore, aiming to secure second place in the round. Thailand showcases a fairly competent team by Asian standards. They typically struggle against the top teams but show significant success when competing with mid-tier squads. Their commitment to this upcoming match is strong, intending to secure a robust victory. The Thais' previous game against China resulted in an unfortunate tie, despite the team maintaining the edge until the 79th minute.

On the other hand, Singapore has long lost any chances of advancing from their group due to their track record of four defeats and just a single draw during these qualifiers. Now, Singapore's focus is on the qualification for the Asian Cup. They face a tough battle in the up-and-coming match as their opposition is strongly motivated.

Head-to-Head
Over the last five years, the teams have encountered each other twice, with Thailand triumphant both times, winning 2-0 and 3-1. Unfortunately, Singapore had limited chances in both these matches, managing only 7 shots on target.

Odds Analysis
Considering Thailand's need to win big and Singapore's recent track record of most defeats ending in failure, a considerable number of goals are expected in the upcoming match. While Thailand averages around 4 corners per match, this number stands at just 3 for Singapore, which when competing against stronger teams, often boils down to merely one or two corners per match. Overall it seems Thailand will come into the game with a strong offense, hence, the expectation of more than 6.5 corners in total.

Despite the home team's strong desire for a victory, they are deemed unlikely to achieve their objective. The forecast predicts that Thailand will secure a limited 2-0 victory with a strong defense from the Singaporean side. Singapore's total number of goals is likely to be under 0.5. Further taking into account Singapore's track record of winning with a handicap of +3.5 in 19 of their last 21 games, and Thailand's record of not winning in 9 of their last 10 WC Qualification, AFC, Asia games, the match is turning out to be an interesting face-off.

Pick: Singapore Total goals Under 0.5
