The League Cup (Thai: ไทยลีกคัพ) is a football cup competition in Thailand. It is also known as Hilux Revo Cup for sponsorship reasons.

History

Thai League Cup was started by Toyota Motor (Thailand) in the name of Toyota Cup, the competition was held eight times between 1987 and 1994. Toyota Cup was canceled after establishing the 1996–97 Thailand Soccer League in the form of a professional league. As a result, the importance of the League Cup was diminished and the reason for its eventual cancellation.

It was re-formed during the 2010 domestic football league season in Thailand and ran along the same lines as the Thai FA Cup except that the earlier rounds would be regional rather than an open draw.

The League Cup competition in Thailand is said to be an opportunity for medium-sized teams to have the opportunity to compete with big teams and win prize money. The winning prize will receive a prize of 5,000,000 baht. The runner-up receives a prize of 1,000,000 baht and a travel allowance for all visiting teams from the qualifying round to the final rounds, 50,000 baht per team.

Thajský ligový pohár (Thai League Cup, thajsky جامหละตัน) je thajská vyřazovací fotbalová soutěž, ve které proti sobě nastupují týmy z Thai League 1, Thai League 2, Thai League 3 a Thai League 4. Turnaj se koná každoročně od roku 1985 a je druhým nejvýznamnějším turnajem v thajském fotbale po Thai FA Cupu.
