OAKLAND PARK, Fla (Gambling911.com) - Thailand comes into Saturday's ASEAN Championship semi-final as a -190 favorite. Singapore will pay out around $550 for every $100 bet.
The match is at Jalan Besar Stadium in Singapore at 9 p.m. local time (9 a.m. ET). The return leg is August 18 at Rajamangala Stadium in Bangkok.
Thailand enjoyed 4 wins from 4 matches during the group stage, 12 points, 10 goals scored and zero conceded. They finished first in Group B and are the tournament's record seven-time champions.
Singapore finished second in Group A behind Vietnam but are also unbeaten. They finished the group stage with eight points, with their final match a 1-1 draw against Indonesia in which Ilhan Fandi scored Singapore's equalizer.
Singapore enters having lost its last 10 matches against Thailand but does have home field advantage.
Singapore can still advance beyond this match. If Singapore wins Saturday, it takes an aggregate advantage to Bangkok. If it draws 1-1, everything is essentially still open.
