Their captain Hassan Maatouk is their star player as the attacking midfielder scored crucial goals during both tournaments while Lebanese forwards struggled to find the net. Teerasil Dangda, on the other hand, is a star player and captain of Thailand and has experience of Spanish top-division football with Almeria and a season at English giants Manchester City.

This is the fourth time the Southeast Asian nation will face the Arab side, who won the previous two encounters by a margin of 5-2 in the Asian Cup in 2013 and 2014 respectively. Thailand's sole win against Lebanon came in 2009 at the King's Cup, when the hosts triumphed 2-1. Thailand, however, have struggled in international football off late with back-to-back four unfavourable results in three losses and a draw.
