Sirius · Why these numbers
Osasuna 39% · Draw 27% · Athletic Club 34%
Home advantage edges Osasuna past stronger Athletic — Athletic Club sit 75 points higher on our strength rating, 1684 to 1609, but Osasuna's usual home advantage, boosted because home sides in La Liga run strong, gives them a slight lean at 39% to 34%. The draw starts at 29%, the usual rate for this strength gap, and drops to 27% because both sides' recent games average 3.2 goals.
Why Osasuna at 39%?
Home ground, against the rating. Athletic Club sit 75 points higher on our strength rating — 1684 to 1609. Sides with a 40–80-point rating edge on the road won 32.6% of 11,153 such games. La Liga home sides out-perform the global norm — and the difference mostly flows to away wins (28.3% vs 30.0%). La Liga homes won 46.6% of 6,189 games vs 44.6% across all 108,444 — outside the noise band, so the tally moves accordingly.
Why only 39%?
Because Athletic Club are the stronger side on our strength rating. Athletic Club hold 8 more possession points (54 to 46 in recent games) across a 75-point rating gap. Control now carries a receipt beyond near-equals too: sides with this control edge at a 60–120-point rating gap won 42.7% of 9,367 such games where the class table expected 40.5%.
Why the draw at 27%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 29.0%. These teams' recent games average 3.2 goals — a high-scoring environment. Games in that environment drew 23.1% of 18,743. The goals environment takes 2.5 points off the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Osasuna sit -0.44 goals per game under chance-quality. For home sides we could not receipt a bounce-back — the measured cells sit inside each other's noise bands — so this is noted and scores 0. Athletic Club have gained 71 strength-rating points over their last 10 games. Momentum is measured but not yet proven: climbing sides won 40.1% of 12,006 such games vs 40.6% class-expected — inside the noise band, so it stays at 0 points until the receipt clears its evidence bar.
