Port FC hosted Nakhon Ratchasima (also known as Korat or Nakhon Ratchasima Mazda FC) at PAT Stadium in Bangkok for a Thai League 1 Round 22 clash on February 21, 2026, with the home side entering as strong favorites given their solid position near the top of the table and the visitors languishing at the bottom.
Pre-match analysis heavily favored Port, who sat in third place with strong home form, having won a high percentage of recent PAT Stadium games while showing consistency in attack and defense. Nakhon Ratchasima, in contrast, struggled badly away from home and had endured a run of losses with poor scoring output, making them vulnerable against a motivated Port side chasing higher spots.
Head-to-head history also tilted decisively toward Port, who had dominated most prior encounters with a clear win record and higher average goals in those fixtures. Predictions commonly pointed to a Port victory, often with over 2.5 goals or a clean sheet, reflecting expectations of home dominance.

Wat Rajapradit Sathan, also known as Wat Racha Praditsathan, is an active Buddhist temple situated on the city island of Ayutthaya in Thailand.
Its name translates to “Monastery of the Royal Installation,” reflecting its historical ties to royalty, and it stands outside the main Ayutthaya Historical Park boundaries in the Tha Wasukri or Hua Ro area. The temple complex today incorporates what was once a separate neighboring site called Wat Tha Sai, which has been annexed into it over time, and remnants of an old canal called Khlong Pratu Khao Pluak still exist as a small pond on the grounds after much of it was filled in.
The temple’s origins date back to the Ayutthaya Kingdom period, though the exact founder and construction date remain unclear from surviving records, with suggestions that it may have royal patronage given its name and associations.
It gained particular prominence through its connection to King Chakkraphat, who reigned from 1548 to 1569 and had ordained as a monk there prior ...
Wat Hua Lamphong is a third-class royal Buddhist temple located in Bangkok’s Bang Rak district along Rama IV Road, near the historic Hua Lamphong railway station.
Originally known as Wat Wua Lamphong and dating back roughly two centuries to the early Rattanakosin period, it serves as an active monastery and community spiritual center rather than a major tourist site.
The temple gained its current name during the reign of King Rama V and underwent a major renovation in 1996 to mark the Golden Jubilee of King Bhumibol Adulyadej, incorporating the royal Kanchanapisek seal featuring two elephants flanking a multi-tiered umbrella throughout its structures.
Its distinctive architecture includes elevated ordination and assembly halls reached by wide staircases, colorful murals depicting Buddhist stories and traditional Thai life, intricate mother-of-pearl and gilded lacquer decorations, and shrines dedicated to figures such as King Rama V and Ganesha.
Locally nicknamed the Coffin Temple, Wat Hua ...
The Erawan Museum in Samut Prakan stands as a striking cultural landmark known for its massive three-headed elephant statue. Located just southeast of Bangkok, it makes for an excellent short day trip.
Opened in 2003, the museum was created by Lek Viriyaphant, who also developed the nearby Ancient City and the Sanctuary of Truth in Pattaya. It houses his impressive private collection of antiques and religious artifacts.
The standout feature is the enormous three-headed elephant, known as Erawan or Airavata in Hindu-Buddhist mythology. Crafted from copper and bronze, this impressive sculpture weighs around 250 tons and rises high on its pedestal, making it one of the largest hand-crafted elephant statues in the world.
The entire structure symbolizes the three realms of the universe — the underworld, the human world, and heaven. Inside, visitors encounter beautifully ornate spaces filled with stained glass, murals, sculptures, and a rich array of artifacts. The lower levels in the pedestal ...
