FA Cup (Thailand): matches and statistics

Thailand FA Cup (Thai FA Cup, Chang FA Cup) - Thailand’s national knockout cup organised by the Football Association of Thailand and open to clubs across the domestic pyramid. Regulations: the tournament is played in single-elimination rounds and typically features a qualifying stage for lower-tier entrants followed by a main bracket that usually begins at a round of 64 where top-division clubs enter, with each tie decided by a single match. If level after 90 minutes, main-round ties are settled by extra time of two 15-minute halves and, if still level, a penalty shoot-out, while qualifying ties may go directly to penalties after 90 minutes depending on the season regulations, and the final is a single match at a venue designated by the organiser. The winner lifts the trophy and earns a place in the next season’s AFC Champions League Elite qualifying play-off, subject to club licensing and eligibility rules.
