The confusion about unbinned likelihood

I have two same data ( but some fluctuation ) say data A and B.
I calculate their unbinned likelihood and find the -2LnL difference is about 10. That means, I think, its very possible to distinguish A and B.
However I already know A and B are similar except fluctuation. The result confuses me, should I trust the unbinned likelihood ?
