Thailand
ThailandCurrent form
Thailand is the current champion of this tournament, as well as the most titled team in the history of the competition. It has seven victories. Before the semi-finals, the hosts of the upcoming match did not have any problems, having dealt with East Timor (10:0), Malaysia (1:0), Singapore (4:2) and Cambodia (3:2) in turn, but in the first semi-final match there was an unexpected away fiasco from the upcoming opponent (1:2). This defeat was the first in the history of face-to-face confrontations, and now, in order to calmly reach the final, they need to win with a difference of at least two goals.

Philippines
PhilippinesCurrent form
The Philippines had to work hard to get to this stage of the tournament. The team drew their first three matches, all with the same score (1:1). While such an outcome in the confrontation with Vietnam can be called a great achievement, the draws with Laos and Myanmar are clearly not something to be proud of. In the quarterfinals, there was a very difficult game with Indonesia. They were lucky that their opponent had a player sent off at the end of the first half, and in the second 45 minutes, the Philippines were able to take advantage of their numerical advantage - they scored and kept their goal intact.
In the first semi-final match, they sensationally managed to beat the current tournament champion in front of local fans. Now, to reach the final, they need to avoid losing away from home.

1.90Tip and bets
Thailand will start the match actively and will try to hit the opponent goal from the first minutes. The hosts show great results in attack, but they also concede a lot: two goals in the last three matches. Moreover, in face-to-face confrontations in Thailand, the teams played each other four times, and in all matches at least three goals were easily scored. We believe that the upcoming match will not be an exception.
Our prediction is total over 2.5 goals with odds of 1.60
Bet on the outcome
Thailand will enter the field charged exclusively for victory. No one expected this team to fail in the first match. We believe that on their home field the Thais will seize the initiative from the first minutes and achieve a positive result (victory) more than confidently, that is, with an advantage of several goals.
The second bet is Asian handicap (-1.5) on Thailand with odds of 1.61
Bet on corners
If the game goes according to the above scenario, the teams will play effectively against each other and will delight with an abundance of corner kicks.
Forecast - total over 8.5 corners with odds of 1.82
