They are averaging 1.20 goals per game and conceding 1.40 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings (10%).

Their home PPG of 1.70 is noticeably stronger than their overall 1.10 — Chonburi FC are significantly better at home than their overall form suggests.

Buriram United have collected 2.70 PPG across their last 10 games: 9W 0D 1L. Last five: W W W W W. Their attacking form is sharp — 3.10 goals per game is a high-output rate that commands respect in the goals markets. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings (30%).

Buriram United's form when playing away from home: 6W 3D 1L across their last 10 road games (2.10 PPG). Away from home they average 1.50 goals scored and 1.20 conceded per game. 4 clean sheets from their last 10 away games (40%) shows they are capable of shutting up shop on the road. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context.

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Chonburi FC 1.57 xG and Buriram United 1.60 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 0.984 / defence 1.047 | Buriram United attack 1.277 / defence 0.949. League average goals — home 1.686 / away 1.196. Buriram United have an above-average attack rating of 1.277, which lifts their away xG to 1.60. Data: built from Chonburi FC's last 50 games and Buriram United's last 50.

Result probabilities: Chonburi FC 36% | Draw 27% | Buriram United 37%. Fair-value odds: Chonburi FC 2.79 | Draw 3.66 | Buriram United 2.71. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome reaches 45%. The draw at 27% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 61% | BTTS Yes probability 65% | Total xG 3.17. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 61% — the 3.17 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 65% — both xG figures (1.57 / 1.60) are high enough that each side is projected to find the net.

Picks & Verdict

On the Poisson output, Buriram United are the pick at 37% — marginal model lean. Recent form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw probability of 27% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Buriram United if the outright odds are short. The opposing side holds a 36% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

The Poisson model projects 3.17 xG in total — Over 2.5 at 61% — reasonable conviction, supported by the H2H data averaging 3.2 goals per game across 5 H2H matches.

Poisson assigns a 65% probability to BTTS Yes based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: Chonburi FC 50% (last 10 home games) | Buriram United 60% (last 10 away games).
