A Thai League 1 encounter, Regular Season - 12 sees Chonburi FC travel to Thalay Luang Stadium to take on Sukhothai FC. The game is scheduled for Sunday 23 November 2025, 11:30 UTC.

Recent Form

Across all Thai League 1 games this season, Sukhothai FC have gone 2W 5D 3L from 10 outings — a 1.10 PPG return. Last five: D D W L D. They are averaging 0.90 goals per game and conceding 1.00 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 2 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. This season is still relatively young for Sukhothai FC, so this record blends games from this season and last.

Sukhothai FC's home record at Thalay Luang Stadium: 3W 4D 3L from 10 Thai League 1 appearances (1.30 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.40 goals scored and 1.40 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 80% of their home games — an outstanding BTTS rate that is a key data point for this fixture.

Looking at all fixtures this season, Chonburi FC stand at 2W 4D 4L from 10 Thai League 1 matches — 1.00 PPG. Last five: D D W L W. 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. Both teams have scored in 70% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market. This season is still relatively young for Chonburi FC, so this record blends games from this season and last.

Chonburi FC's away record: 1W 3D 1L from 5 road trips in Thai League 1 this season (1.20 PPG). Away from home they average 1.00 goals scored and 1.40 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context.

The form comparison is too close to call — 1.10 PPG (Sukhothai FC) versus 1.00 (Chonburi FC). When the figures are this level, no pick can be reliably derived from recent results alone.

The BTTS market is worth targeting here. Sukhothai FC register both teams scoring in 80% of relevant matches, Chonburi FC in 60% (using home/away splits) — both sides above the 60% threshold gives BTTS Yes firm statistical grounding.

Head to Head

The rivalry is an even one: 2 wins apiece for Sukhothai FC, 1 for Chonburi FC and 1 shared spoils from 4 past contests. Neither side holds a meaningful historical edge.

Goals have been a feature of this fixture. The last 4 meetings have averaged 3.0 per game — a rate that gives the Over 2.5 market a solid historical foundation. The most recent clash, on 25 Feb 2024, ended 1–3 with Chonburi FC winning.

With the win record balanced, the strongest H2H-derived signal is in the goals market. At 3.0 goals per game historically, Over 2.5 is the cleaner angle to extract from the head-to-head data.

Trading Patterns

Sukhothai FC in-play and half-time data (11 games, 5 at home): they score before half-time in 20% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 86% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 57% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 80% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 40% of games (home games).

Chonburi FC in-play and half-time data (11 games, 5 at away): they score before half-time in 60% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 80% of the time; BTTS occurs in 60% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 60% of games (away games); they fail to score in 36% of games.

From a combined perspective, both sides have high BTTS rates — Sukhothai FC 64% and Chonburi FC 64% — which reinforces the BTTS Yes angle from in-play data. Under 2.5 goals has backing from the in-play data — both teams register low Over 2.5 rates (Sukhothai FC 27% | Chonburi FC 46%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Sukhothai FC 1.55 xG and Chonburi FC 1.01 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: Sukhothai FC attack 0.964 / defence 1.011 | Chonburi FC attack 0.821 / defence 1.093. League average goals — home 1.474 / away 1.218. Data: 40 Sukhothai FC games / 11 Chonburi FC games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Sukhothai FC 46% | Draw 32% | Chonburi FC 21%. Fair-value odds: Sukhothai FC 2.17 | Draw 3.12 | Chonburi FC 4.76. Sukhothai FC hold a narrow Poisson edge at 46% — the draw (32%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 47% | BTTS probability 54% | Total xG 2.56. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 47%/53% — the total xG of 2.56 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 54% is moderate — 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 Sukhothai FC at 46% — moderate model lean. With a 32% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Sukhothai FC offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.

The Poisson model projects 2.56 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 47% — Poisson-only — limited corroboration confidence — though H2H averaging only 3.0 goals per meeting points in the other direction.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 54% on Yes. Form rates corroborate: Sukhothai FC 80% | Chonburi FC 60% BTTS from recent games.
