# 2019 Buriram United F.C. season

The 2019 season is Buriram United's 8th season in the Thai League. The club enters the season as the Thai League defending champions, and will participate in the top level league. They will also participate in two domestic cups (FA and League Cup), Champions Cup and AFC Champions League.
This is the first season in the league that Buriram will face only other 15 instead of 17 teams since the football association reduced the top league teams from 18 to 16. And this is also the first season that Buriram doesn't win any titles of the season (excluding Thailand Champions Cup) since the club's first season, 2010.
