The SEA Games 33 women's volleyball final between Vietnam and Thailand is scheduled for 17:30 on 15/12 at Huamark Arena in Bangkok. This marks the 12th time the two teams have met in a SEA Games final, with Thailand consistently being the dominant force in regional women's volleyball.
Historical data indicates that Vietnam has reached the SEA Games final 11 times previously, but has been defeated by Thailand in every instance. Across these matches, the Vietnam team managed to win a total of three sets while losing 33 sets. Eight of these finals concluded with a 3-0 victory for Thailand, with the remaining three matches ending 3-1. Vietnam has never secured more than one set in any SEA Games final against Thailand.
For over 20 years, Vietnam has often held the runner-up position in the region. In contrast, Thailand has elevated its status to a continental level, securing 16 SEA Games gold medals, including 14 consecutive golds, alongside numerous Asian titles. Despite this historical dominance, Vietnam once defeated Thailand in the SEA V.League 2025, creating additional anticipation ahead of the SEA Games 33 final.
