Buriram United half-time and goal-timing data (last 28 games, 14 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 57% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 60% of the time; of the 12 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 25%; BTTS occurs in 64% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 50% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 43%; they keep a clean sheet 43% of the time.

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Uthai Thani 1.19 xG and Buriram United 1.80 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: Uthai Thani attack 0.885 / defence 1.169 | Buriram United attack 1.363 / defence 0.790. League average goals — home 1.697 / away 1.133. Buriram United bring a tight defence (rating 0.790, below 1 = concedes less than average) — this is pulling Uthai Thani's projected output down. Buriram United have an above-average attack rating of 1.363, which lifts their away xG to 1.80. Data: built from Uthai Thani's last 28 games and Buriram United's last 58.

Result probabilities: Uthai Thani 24% | Draw 25% | Buriram United 51%. Fair-value odds: Uthai Thani 4.16 | Draw 3.98 | Buriram United 1.97. Buriram United hold a narrow Poisson edge at 51% — the draw (25%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 57% | BTTS Yes probability 59% | Total xG 2.99. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 57% — the 2.99 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 59% is only a slight lean — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Verdict

The Poisson model's primary lean is Buriram United at 51% — moderate model lean. Recent form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw probability of 25% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Buriram United if the outright odds are short.

Poisson projects 2.99 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 57% probability — reasonable conviction, supported by recent form (Uthai Thani's last 10 home games and Buriram United's last 10 away games) averaging 3.0 goals per game.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 59% on Yes. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: Uthai Thani 70% (last 10 home games) | Buriram United 80% (last 10 away games).
