Full Analysis

Leo Chiangrai Stadium plays host to Chiangrai United versus Ayutthaya FC in Thai League 1, Regular Season - 11. Kick-off: Sunday 6 December 2026 at 11:00 UTC.

Current Form

Chiangrai United's overall Thai League 1 record this term: 5W 3D 2L from 10 games (1.80 PPG). Last five: W W D W W. They are averaging 1.30 goals per game and conceding 0.60 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. Defensively, conceding just 0.60 per game is an exceptional defensive record — one of the tightest in the division. 6 clean sheets from 10 games (60%) is a standout defensive return — they are keeping their net clean in more than half their matches. Chiangrai United have played only a handful of Thai League 1 games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.

Chiangrai United's form when playing at home: 4W 3D 3L across 10 games at Leo Chiangrai Stadium this term (1.50 PPG). At home they are averaging 0.90 goals scored and 0.90 conceded per game. 5 clean sheets from 10 home games (50%) — they are an exceptionally hard side to score against at Leo Chiangrai Stadium.

Ayutthaya FC (all games): 3W 0D 7L across 10 Thai League 1 outings this term — 0.90 points per game. Last five: L L L L W. Their scoring rate of 0.80 per game is modest, conceding 2.00 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. Conceding 2.00 per game is a high rate — their defensive vulnerabilities have been exposed regularly this season. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. Ayutthaya FC have played only a handful of Thai League 1 games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.

Ayutthaya FC's away record: 4W 3D 3L from 10 road trips in Thai League 1 this season (1.50 PPG). Away from home they average 1.10 goals scored and 1.40 conceded per game. 4 clean sheets from 10 away games (40%) shows they are capable of shutting up shop on the road. Their away PPG of 1.50 exceeds their overall 0.90 — they actually perform better on the road than their aggregate form implies.

The points-per-game gap of 0.90 in Chiangrai United's favour (1.80 vs 0.90) is a statistically meaningful difference. The hosts are the form pick here, with draw protection the sensible hedge given the away side's competitiveness.

H2H History

The head-to-head record is closely matched — Chiangrai United lead 0W to 0W over the last 2 encounters, with 2 draws, though neither side has established a commanding advantage.

Scoring has been limited when these teams have met. The 2 previous contests averaged 1.0 goals, making the Under 2.5 the historically backed angle in the goals market. The most recent clash, on 24 Jan 2026, ended 0–0 with a draw.

With a balanced win record and just 1.0 goals per game historically, the H2H points toward a tight, low-scoring contest. Under 2.5 goals has the strongest statistical grounding from the fixture history regardless of which side wins.

Trading

Chiangrai United half-time and goal-timing data (31 games, 15 at home): they score before half-time in 73% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 71% of the time; BTTS occurs in 33% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 20% of games (home games).

Ayutthaya FC half-time and goal-timing data (31 games, 15 at away): they score before half-time in 73% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 86% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 57% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 53% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 47% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 36%.

From a combined perspective, both sides have high BTTS rates — Chiangrai United 61% and Ayutthaya FC 61% — which reinforces the BTTS Yes angle from in-play data. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Chiangrai United 32% | Ayutthaya FC 48%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Chiangrai United 1.34 xG and Ayutthaya FC 0.78 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Chiangrai United attack 0.910 / defence 0.845 | Ayutthaya FC attack 1.006 / defence 1.021. League average goals — home 1.438 / away 0.918. Data: 31 Chiangrai United games / 30 Ayutthaya FC games used (PrevSeason). Note: current-season sample is too small — prior-season data is carrying the calculation. Model confidence is reduced; treat probabilities as directional rather than precise.

Result probabilities: Chiangrai United 49% | Draw 30% | Ayutthaya FC 21%. Fair-value odds: Chiangrai United 2.04 | Draw 3.33 | Ayutthaya FC 4.76. Chiangrai United hold a narrow Poisson edge at 49% — the draw (30%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 35% | BTTS probability 41% | Total xG 2.12. Under 2.5 is the strongly backed market at 65% probability — total xG of 2.12 sits well below the 2.5 threshold. The model is projecting a tight, low-scoring match based on both sides' defensive quality. BTTS probability of 41% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Verdict

The Poisson model's primary lean is Chiangrai United at 49% — moderate model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw probability of 30% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Chiangrai United if the outright odds are short.

The Poisson model projects 2.12 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 35% — reasonable confidence, supported by form averaging 2.1 goals per game.

Poisson assigns a 41% probability to BTTS No based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate: Chiangrai United 40% | Ayutthaya FC 40% BTTS from recent games.

The Poisson model is drawing on PrevSeason data (30 games minimum) — early-season projections carry additional uncertainty. Weight the live form and odds signals accordingly.
