BG Pathum United's bid for the Thai League 1 title took a blow when they dropped valuable points at Khon Kaen United with a 1-1 draw on Saturday night.

The Rabbits are challenging Bangkok United for this season's crown but remain a point behind the leaders, who have two games in hand.

Renato Kelic put Pathum ahead in the eighth minute when a Jakkapan Praisuwan header found him right in front of the goalmouth. Khon Kaen equalised early in the second half through a goal from Jakkit Palapon.

In the last minute of the match, the Rabbits had a chance to steal a win but veteran Thailand striker Teerasil Dangda missed the target.

Willen Popp helped Muang Thong United share a point with visiting Ratchaburi following a 1-1 tie on Saturday.

Willen cancelled out Ratchaburi's early lead through a Korrawit Tasa goal with a deflected shot shortly after the hour mark.

In other Saturday night games, Uthai Thani were held 2-2 by Lamphun Warriors at home and Chiang Rai United edged Nakhon Pathom United 2-1.
