Current Form

Chonburi FC's record over their last 10 games: 2W 2D 6L (0.80 PPG). Last five: L L D D L. They are averaging 1.20 goals per game and conceding 1.70 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings (10%). Both teams have scored in 70% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets.

Chonburi FC's form when playing at home: 5W 2D 3L across their last 10 home games (1.70 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.80 goals scored and 1.20 conceded per game. 4 home clean sheets from their last 10 home games (40%) — a solid defensive base on their own ground. Their home PPG of 1.70 is noticeably stronger than their overall 0.80 — Chonburi FC are significantly better at home than their overall form suggests.

Lamphun Warrior have collected 1.50 PPG across their last 10 games: 5W 0D 5L. Last five: W W L L L. Their scoring rate of 1.20 per game is modest, conceding 1.50 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings (10%). Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market.

On the road, Lamphun Warrior have gone 3W 1D 6L in their last 10 away fixtures (1.00 PPG). Away from home they average 0.70 goals scored and 1.60 conceded per game. Their away PPG of 1.00 is notably below their overall 1.50 — form away from home has been a clear weakness recently.

The travelling side arrive in better shape. Lamphun Warrior are 0.70 PPG clear of Chonburi FC over their recent games (1.50 vs 0.80). Backing the visitors outright or on Draw No Bet are both valid approaches where the price allows.

H2H History

Neither side has dominated the 2 H2H matches in our data: 2 wins for Chonburi FC, 0 for Lamphun Warrior and 0 draws — leaving the H2H largely neutral. With only 2 H2H matches to go on, treat this as a light input.

The 2 H2H matches in our data averaged 2.0 goals per game — a neutral rate that gives no strong lean on the goals market from the H2H alone. The most recent of those, on 5 Feb 2023, ended Chonburi FC 2–0 Lamphun Warrior — a Chonburi FC win.

The head-to-head data offers no strong steer in either the result or goals markets. Form, the model and current market pricing should carry more weight for this fixture.

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Chonburi FC 1.45 xG and Lamphun Warrior 0.91 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: Chonburi FC attack 0.857 / defence 0.956 | Lamphun Warrior attack 0.868 / defence 1.064. League average goals — home 1.585 / away 1.098. Data: built from Chonburi FC's last 33 games and Lamphun Warrior's last 33.

Result probabilities: Chonburi FC 48% | Draw 29% | Lamphun Warrior 22%. Fair-value odds: Chonburi FC 2.07 | Draw 3.41 | Lamphun Warrior 4.46. Chonburi FC hold a narrow Poisson edge at 48% — the draw (29%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 42% | BTTS Yes probability 47% | Total xG 2.36. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 58% — total xG of 2.36 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS No at 53% is only a slight lean — the model gives both sides a fair chance of scoring, so No isn't a clear standalone call.

Picks & Verdict

On the Poisson output, Chonburi FC are the pick at 48% — moderate model lean. Note a divergence: in-form Lamphun Warrior (1.50 PPG) cuts against the Poisson lean — the model adjusts for opposition strength, which raw form results do not. Draw probability of 29% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Chonburi FC if the outright odds are short.

The Poisson model projects 2.36 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 58% — a Poisson-only call with no corroboration from form or H2H.

Poisson assigns a 53% probability to BTTS No based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: Chonburi FC 50% (last 10 home games) | Lamphun Warrior 40% (last 10 away games).
