Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Brighton 49%, the draw 28%, Leeds 23%. It finished Brighton 1–1 Leeds.
Brighton's rating edge, but the draw is in play — Brighton are a shade stronger on our strength rating, and that is most of Brighton's 49%. The draw at 28% is lifted by the early-season fade in home wins.
Why Brighton at 49%?
Brighton sit 86 points higher on our strength rating — 1971 to 1886. Sides with a 50–100-point rating edge at home won 50.5% of 10,414 such games.
Why only 49%?
Both sides are inside their first six league games — home wins land softer this early in the season, so this trims Brighton's column. Across 10,911 opening-stretch games since 2010, home sides won 42.8% where the rating map expected 44.9%, with draws up 2.0 — negative in every season since 2018.
Why is the draw second, ahead of the Leeds win?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 26.5%. These teams' recent games average 2.8 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 24.6% of 24,965. Early-season fixtures add 2.0 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Brighton average 20 points more possession, but the rating gap here is 86 points. Our control receipt only exists between near-equals — there it moved results; across a class gap we could not measure a separate style edge, so style scores 0 here. Leeds have gained 73 strength-rating points over their last 10 games. Momentum is measured but not yet proven: climbing sides won 41.4% of 12,294 such games vs 40.7% class-expected — inside the noise band, so it stays at 0 points until the receipt clears its evidence bar. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
