Globe Cup, Super Cup, Thai League kick-off – sharing my experience

Featured Replies

To be honest, after WC2026, I thought it would take me some time to get back into my usual routine. 104 matches! The final was a while ago, but I still remember that night. The whole neighborhood was buzzing – it felt like the match was being played right outside our door. The usual crowd got together with som tam, chips, and beer, then spent the rest of the night arguing that Ferran Torres should’ve scored in regulation, making the bet a winning one… I was on under 1.5 goals, so I had absolutely nothing to complain about)

Overall, the tournament was amazing – comebacks, shocking upsets, and nights that left everyone useless at work the next morning. By the end of it, I was convinced I needed a vacation… I was even glad football was taking a break after the World Cup.

Then, before I knew it, almost a month had flown by, and the UEFA Super Cup was here. PSG vs Aston Villa, Champions League winner vs Europa League champion! There was no way I was missing that match, even on a weeknight.… I watched it live, keeping an eye on the odds as they shifted throughout the game. Kvaratskhelia opened the scoring in style in the 20th minute. Riding the excitement, I placed a live bet on PSG to win. But Aston Villa didn’t panic. 17-year-old Madjo equalized just before halftime, becoming the youngest goalscorer in the tournament’s history! The odds on a PSG win jumped immediately; I regretted not waiting a little longer before placing my bet. But in the 61st minute, Doué restored PSG's lead with an assist from Dembélé. In the end, my bet landed – it just paid a little less than it could have…

And what’s happening in Thai League 1?

While Europe's top leagues were getting ready for the new season in August, things were pretty quiet here. Thai League 1 doesn’t kick off until September 4, three weeks later than usual, to give national team players time to recover after the World Cup. Interestingly, even the Premier League delayed its opener by a week this year. Arsenal will face newly promoted Coventry City just 33 days after the WC2026 final, for the same reason.

Twelve-time champions Buriram United are back to defend their title. They've won the league five seasons in a row – an incredible run that's hard to imagine anyone else matching anytime soon. Their campaign begins away against Sukhothai, who spent last season near the bottom of the standings – a good opportunity to kick off their title defense with a convincing win.

Last season, Thunder Castle dominated the league. Bissoli became the top scorer with 23 goals in 25 matches! More than 30,000 fans packed the stands for Buriram's clash with Lamphun Warriors – a new attendance record. They also lifted the ASEAN Club Championship…

Three newcomers have leaped the elite tier: Pattani, Rasisalai United, and Sisaket United. Pattani's first test will be against top-four side BG Pathum United. The season is expected to be intriguing; there might finally be someone capable of challenging Thunder Castle. I’m thinking of backing Buriram to win the league, even if the odds are pretty short. Additionally, there's a strong chance Bissoli hits 20+ league goals for the third consecutive season, making these odds even more attractive. The race for second place looks just as intriguing. Last season, Port and Ratchaburi were neck and neck, and it’ll be fun to see that rivalry continue.

What do you think – does anyone stand a chance against the champions? Share in the comments; let’s compare predictions before the action starts.
