Nakhon Pathom form and stats

The Thai League Two statistics at home this season for Nakhon Pathom are 5-7-4 (wins-draws-losses).

The Nakhon crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 1-2 to Chiangmai here at Kasetsart Kampangsan University Stadium. The defeat against Chiangmai was especially painful as the deciding goal against was scored three minutes into stoppage time (by Sugishita).

Before that match, a win away at Ranong United.

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 Pathom have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found five games) they have won one time, drawn three and lost one.

Nakhon are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 23 goals in 16 games. With more than 1,5 conceded goals on average, the Nakhon Pathom defense is not exactly impregnable. 24 goals conceded from 16 games. You can find more goal stats on the Statistics tab above.

A home win before that, celebrating 2-1 vs Navy.
