It's early days in the Thai League Two and both Nakhon Pathom and Chainat Hornbill are still hoping for a flying start in order to set the tone for the season. Three points can make a big difference at this stage.

It’s busy days for these teams as both were in action only a few days ago. There’s no rest for the wicked, or in this case; no rest for Nakhon and Chainat Hornbill.

Nakhon Pathom form and stats

Only two Thai League Two home games for Nakhon Pathom so far, yet both highs and lows with 1 win, 0 draws and 1 defeat.

Nakhon enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Customs United's place. The match ended 2-0. A 2-2 draw away before that, with Nong Bua Pitchaya the opponent.

The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Nakhon have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found one game) they have won zero times, drawn zero and lost one.

Some members of the home team might already be thinking of their next match, the Thai League Two game versus Samut Sakhon in only three days. This game is also played here at Kasetsart Kampangsan University Stadium.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Nakhon Pathom at home in the league. 2 on target and 1 scored by the opposition; from 2 matches.

Chainat Hornbill form and stats

We have checked recent matches where Hornbill have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those two games were zero victories, zero draws and two defeats.

The visitors will be packing their bags again in only three days as another away game awaits: The Thai League Two trip to Ranong United.
