Match Analysis
Buriram United host Sukhothai FC at Chang Arena in Thai League 1 (matchday 22). Kick-off is Saturday 21 February 2026 at 11:30 UK time.
Form Guide
Buriram United — last 10 games: 8W 1D 1L, averaging 2.50 points per game. Last five: D W W L W. They are averaging 2.50 goals per game — a high-scoring output that makes them a genuine attacking threat in any fixture. Defensively, conceding just 0.60 per game is an exceptional defensive record. 5 clean sheets from 10 games (50%) is a standout defensive return — they are keeping their net clean in more than half their matches.
Buriram United at home: 8W 1D 1L from their last 10 home games — 2.50 PPG on home soil. They are averaging 2.70 goals per home game — a prolific scoring rate in front of their own fans. BTTS has landed in 60% of their home matches — a rate that supports the Yes angle in this fixture.
Looking at their last 10 matches, Sukhothai FC stand at 2W 4D 4L — 1.00 PPG. Last five: L D L D D. Their scoring rate of 0.60 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%).
Sukhothai FC away from home: 0W 5D 5L from their last 10 away games — 0.50 PPG on the road. Away from home they average 0.70 goals scored and 1.90 conceded per game. Their away PPG of 0.50 is notably below their overall 1.00 — form away from home has been a clear weakness recently.
On current form, Buriram United have the edge — a 1.50 PPG advantage (2.50 vs 1.00) represents a meaningful gap. That momentum makes them the form-based pick, though if the outright price looks short, Draw No Bet is worth comparing.
H2H
Buriram United hold a clear advantage across the 7 H2H matches in our data, with 7 wins compared to 0 for Sukhothai FC and 0 draws.
The 7 H2H matches in our data have been high-scoring — 3.0 goals per game on average — which backs the Over 2.5 market from the head-to-head side. The most recent of those, on 24 Dec 2025, ended Buriram United 1–0 Sukhothai FC — a Buriram United win.
From a betting standpoint, the H2H data backs both Buriram United and goals — 7 wins from 7 H2H matches and an average of 3.0 goals per game give the home win and Over 2.5 combination a head-to-head case.
Trading Patterns
Buriram United in-play and half-time data (last 50 games, 23 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 78% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 82% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 54% of those occasions; they lead at the break 48% of the time; of the 9 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 44%; BTTS occurs in 39% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 61% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 46%; they keep a clean sheet 44% of the time.
Sukhothai FC in-play and half-time data (last 50 games, 23 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 74% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 74% of the time; of the 11 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 36%; of the 17 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 29%; BTTS occurs in 52% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 44% of games (away games).
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Buriram United 52% versus Sukhothai FC 60%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Buriram United 68% | Sukhothai FC 50%). Note also that Sukhothai FC surrender HT leads in 36% of cases while Buriram United recover from half-time deficits to draw or win 44% of the time — a dynamic that could influence in-play positioning.
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Buriram United 2.78 xG and Sukhothai FC 0.69 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: Buriram United attack 1.465 / defence 0.916 | Sukhothai FC attack 0.658 / defence 1.244. League average goals — home 1.523 / away 1.152. Buriram United carry an above-average attack rating of 1.465 — their 2.78 xG reflects attacking quality above the league norm. Sukhothai FC's defence rating of 1.244 (above 1 = concedes more than average) is pushing Buriram United's projected output up. Sukhothai FC's attack rating of 0.658 is below the league average, which holds their xG down at 0.69. Data: built from Buriram United's last 50 games and Sukhothai FC's last 50.
Result probabilities: Buriram United 80% | Draw 14% | Sukhothai FC 6%. Fair-value odds: Buriram United 1.25 | Draw 6.99 | Sukhothai FC 16.95. The model has a clear lean to Buriram United (80%) — a 66pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 67% | BTTS Yes probability 48% | Total xG 3.47. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 67% — a total xG of 3.47 means the expected score alone exceeds the 2.5 threshold, making the Over not just likely but structurally supported by both sides' attack/defence profiles. BTTS No at 52% is only a slight lean — the model gives both sides a fair chance of scoring, so No isn't a clear standalone call.
Summary & Verdict
The Poisson model's primary lean is Buriram United at 80% — clear model lean. Recent form and the head-to-head data both align with the Poisson read — multi-source corroboration increases confidence in this selection.
The Poisson model projects 3.47 xG in total — Over 2.5 at 67% — strong conviction, supported by recent form (Buriram United's last 10 home games and Sukhothai FC's last 10 away games) averaging 3.1 goals per game and the H2H data averaging 3.0 goals per game across 7 H2H matches.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 52% on No. Form rates are neutral — both teams scored in: Buriram United 60% (last 10 home games) | Sukhothai FC 40% (last 10 away games).

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Buriram United beat Sukhothai FC 6-0 at Chang Arena, Regular Season - 22, in the Thai League 1. The remainder of the report sets that outcome against the pre-match model, the markets and the teams' data profiles.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Buriram United 2.78 xG and Sukhothai FC 0.69 xG, a combined 3.47. The scoreboard read 6-0 for 6 actual goals. Buriram United beat their projection by 3.2 — clinical relative to the chances the model priced in. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Buriram United attack 1.47 / defence 0.92 against Sukhothai FC attack 0.66 / defence 1.24, drawn from 50/50 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Buriram United 80% | Draw 14% | Sukhothai FC 6%, with Buriram United to win its most likely call at 80%. The result followed the model's preferred path, landing its top-rated outcome.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 67%. The game delivered 6, so it went over — in line with the projection. Over 1.5 had been 87% and landed. Over 3.5 was 46% and came in. On both teams to score, the model sat at 48% and the match did not — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 59% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Buriram United 68%, Sukhothai FC 50%), a base rate that agreed with today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 56%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Buriram United's trading profile (50 games, 23 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 52% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 44% of the time, and duly kept one.
Sukhothai FC's trading profile (50 games, 23 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 60% of their matches — today it did not; they fail to score in 28% of games, a blank that repeated today.

Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 4 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (hit), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (hit), form (hit). A strong night for the model: the result sat comfortably inside what the pre-match data projected.
