Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Arsenal 69%, the draw 19%, Leeds 12%. It finished Arsenal 2–1 Leeds.
Arsenal's rating gap decides it — Arsenal are clearly the stronger side on our strength rating, and that is most of Arsenal's 69%. The draw at 19% is up from the usual 16.8% for a gap this size, as small adjustments add up.
Why Arsenal at 69%?
Arsenal sit 243 points higher on our strength rating — 2019 to 1776. Sides with a more than 240-point rating edge at home won 79.2% of 5,549 such games. The 300 most similar past games finished 69–18–13.
Why only 69%?
Both sides are inside their first six league games — home wins land softer this early in the season, so this trims Arsenal's column. Across 11,252 opening-stretch games since 2010, home sides won 42.8% where the rating map expected 44.7%, with draws up 1.4 — negative in every season since 2018.
Why is the draw only 19%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 16.8%. These teams' recent games average 2.7 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 26.5% of 28,284. Early-season fixtures add 1.4 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Arsenal have averaged 8 percentage points more possession than Leeds in recent games. That doesn’t change our forecast here. Out: William Saliba, an important player, and Christos Tzolis, on a provisional rating. This does not change our forecast yet: we are still measuring how much missing players like these cost a team. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
