Lamphun Warrior's overall Thai League 1 record this term: 3W 4D 3L from 10 games (1.30 PPG). Last five: D L W W W. They are averaging 1.40 goals per game and conceding 1.20 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets. Lamphun Warrior have played only a handful of Thai League 1 games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.

Ratchaburi have collected 1.90 PPG across 10 Thai League 1 outings this season: 6W 1D 3L. Last five: D W W L W. Their attacking form is sharp — 2.40 goals per game is a high-output rate that commands respect in the goals markets. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market. Ratchaburi have played only a handful of Thai League 1 games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.

Ratchaburi away from home this season: 6W 2D 2L from 10 away games — 2.00 PPG on the road. They are averaging 2.00 goals per away game — strong road scoring that makes them a threat even without home support. Both teams have scored in 80% of their away matches — a high BTTS rate on the road that directly informs this fixture.

On a straight form reading, Ratchaburi are the stronger side — 0.60 PPG clear of the hosts (1.90 vs 1.30). Backing them with draw insurance is the conservative play if the outright away price appears short.

In terms of goals, both squads have been finding the net consistently (using home/away splits) — Lamphun Warrior have seen both teams score in 60% of their games, Ratchaburi in 80%. That combined rate is a strong statistical case for BTTS Yes as a standalone play.

H2H Analysis

The head-to-head ledger leans to Ratchaburi, who have claimed 4 wins from 8 meetings compared to 1 for the hosts, with 3 draws.

The 8 previous meetings have averaged 2.2 goals per game — a neutral rate that provides no strong lean on the goals market from the H2H alone. The most recent clash, on 11 Apr 2026, ended 1–2 with Ratchaburi winning.

It is worth noting that Ratchaburi have a superior record in this fixture despite their visitor status — 4 wins from 8 meetings. Home advantage alone is not a sufficient reason to dismiss that track record.

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Lamphun Warrior 1.53 xG and Ratchaburi 2.26 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: Lamphun Warrior attack 1.000 / defence 1.187 | Ratchaburi attack 1.309 / defence 1.056. League average goals — home 1.445 / away 1.456. Ratchaburi have an above-average attack strength of 1.309 — the away xG of 2.26 is driven by genuine attacking quality on the road. Data: 37 Lamphun Warrior games / 37 Ratchaburi games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Lamphun Warrior 25% | Draw 21% | Ratchaburi 54%. Fair-value odds: Lamphun Warrior 4.00 | Draw 4.76 | Ratchaburi 1.85. Ratchaburi hold a narrow Poisson edge at 54% — the draw (21%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 73% | BTTS probability 71% | Total xG 3.79. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 73% — a total xG of 3.79 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 Yes at 71% reflects that both xG figures (1.53 / 2.26) are above the threshold where scoring blanks become the primary outcome — both sides are projected to find the net.

Picks & Verdict

On the Poisson output, Ratchaburi are the pick at 54% — moderate model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support.

Poisson projects 3.79 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 73% probability — reasonable conviction, supported by form averaging 2.9 goals per game.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 71% on Yes. Form rates corroborate: Lamphun Warrior 60% | Ratchaburi 80% BTTS from recent games.
