Recent Form

Across their last 10 games, Prachuap have gone 4W 4D 2L — a 1.60 PPG return. Last five: D W L W D. They are averaging 1.20 goals per game and conceding 0.90 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings (30%). Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets.

Prachuap at home: 5W 2D 3L from their last 10 home games — 1.70 PPG on home soil. At home they are averaging 1.40 goals scored and 1.00 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 70% of their home games — an outstanding BTTS rate that is a key data point for this fixture.

Looking at their last 10 matches, Lamphun Warrior stand at 3W 3D 4L — 1.20 PPG. Last five: L D D L L. Their scoring rate of 1.40 per game is modest, conceding 1.40 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings (20%). Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market.

Lamphun Warrior away from home: 1W 4D 5L from their last 10 away games — 0.70 PPG on the road. Away from home they average 1.30 goals scored and 1.90 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context. Their away PPG of 0.70 is notably below their overall 1.20 — form away from home has been a clear weakness recently.

The form comparison is too close to call — 1.60 PPG (Prachuap) versus 1.20 (Lamphun Warrior). When the figures are this level, no pick can be reliably derived from recent results alone.

The BTTS market is worth targeting here. Both teams have scored in 70% of Prachuap's games and 60% of Lamphun Warrior's (from Prachuap's last 10 home games and Lamphun Warrior's last 10 away games) — both sides above the 60% threshold gives BTTS Yes firm statistical grounding.

Head to Head

The H2H picture is flat: the 3 H2H matches we hold have produced 1 wins for Prachuap, 1 for Lamphun Warrior and 1 draw. Form and model data should carry more weight here. With only 3 H2H matches to go on, treat this as a light input.

Scoring has been limited in the 3 H2H matches in our data, averaging 1.3 goals per game, which makes Under 2.5 the head-to-head-backed angle in the goals market. The most recent of those, on 10 Dec 2023, ended Prachuap 1–2 Lamphun Warrior — a Lamphun Warrior win.

With a balanced win record and just 1.3 goals per game, the H2H data points toward a tight, low-scoring contest — Under 2.5 is the stronger head-to-head angle regardless of which side wins.

Trading Patterns

Prachuap in-play and half-time data (last 56 games, 27 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 67% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 83% of the time; of the 17 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 29%; BTTS occurs in 70% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 52% of games (home games).

Lamphun Warrior in-play and half-time data (last 56 games, 27 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 48% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 81% of the time; of the 17 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 41%; BTTS occurs in 41% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 44% of games (away games); they fail to score in 38% of games.

BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Prachuap 66% versus Lamphun Warrior 52%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Prachuap 52% | Lamphun Warrior 50%). There is an in-play dynamic worth noting: Prachuap surrender their half-time lead 29% of the time, while Lamphun Warrior have come from behind at the break to draw or win in 41% of cases — a combination that makes laying the hosts at HT a potential angle.

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Prachuap 1.43 xG and Lamphun Warrior 1.04 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: Prachuap attack 0.869 / defence 0.896 | Lamphun Warrior attack 0.974 / defence 0.989. League average goals — home 1.665 / away 1.188. Data: built from Prachuap's last 56 games and Lamphun Warrior's last 56.

Result probabilities: Prachuap 46% | Draw 28% | Lamphun Warrior 27%. Fair-value odds: Prachuap 2.19 | Draw 3.63 | Lamphun Warrior 3.73. Prachuap hold a narrow Poisson edge at 46% — the draw (28%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 45% | BTTS Yes probability 50% | Total xG 2.47. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 55% — total xG of 2.47 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS Yes at 50% is only a slight lean — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Summary & Verdict

The Poisson model's primary lean is Prachuap at 46% — moderate model lean. With a 28% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Prachuap offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.

The Poisson model projects 2.47 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 55% — reasonable conviction, supported by the H2H data averaging 1.3 goals per game across 3 H2H matches.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 50% on No. This conflicts with form data — both teams scored in: Prachuap 70% (last 10 home games) | Lamphun Warrior 60% (last 10 away games), a notable divergence.
