In the last season's Southeast Asian Cup C1, Coach Mano Polking's CAHN Club played extremely well, reaching the final, only losing to Buriram United after a penalty shootout.

Siam Sport commented: “CAHN Club participated in the Southeast Asian Cup C1 this time with the goal of taking revenge on their old opponent. They will have an important match with Buriram United on December 3, at Buriram United's Chang Arena.”
“Football fans across Southeast Asia are eagerly awaiting the confrontation between the two football giants of Thailand and Vietnam,” is still the line written in Thailand's leading sports daily.
