Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Osasuna 44%, the draw 30%, Espanyol 26%. It finished Osasuna 0–2 Espanyol.
Level sides, home ground swings it, even this early in the season — Nothing separates them on our strength rating, and La Liga home advantage gives Osasuna the lean. The draw at 30% is lifted by the early-season fade in home wins.
Why Osasuna in front?
Home ground, mostly. Almost nothing between them on our strength rating — 1787 to 1744. Sides this close won 45.7% of 14,634 home games (draw 26.5%, visitors 27.9%). La Liga home sides out-perform the global norm — and the difference mostly flows to away wins (28.3% vs 30.2%). La Liga homes won 46.7% of 6,122 games vs 44.9% across all 100,077 — outside the noise band, so the tally moves accordingly.
Why only 44%?
Because on our strength rating there is nothing in it. Both sides are inside their first six league games — home wins land softer this early in the season, so this trims Osasuna's column. Across 11,058 opening-stretch games since 2010, home sides won 42.7% 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 Espanyol win?
Between sides this level the draw starts at 26.5%. These teams' recent games average 2.6 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 26.2% of 27,797. Early-season fixtures add 2.0 points to the draw. The goals environment adds 1.4 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Espanyol have rebuilt the eleven — fewer of last season's regular starters are still starting. Squad turnover reads dramatic but hasn't moved results once the rating is controlled: the busiest windows landed within noise across 5,368 games, rebuilt elevens likewise across 5,446, and even losing the most regular starters showed nothing (5,336).
