Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave AC Milan 44%, the draw 29%, Atalanta 27%. It finished AC Milan 3–2 Atalanta.
Home advantage gives AC Milan a slight lean — With almost nothing between the sides on our strength rating, 1784 to 1753, the usual home advantage puts AC Milan in front at 44%, though Serie A home sides under-perform the global norm, which helps Atalanta. The draw sits at 29%, up from the usual 28% for sides this level, nudged higher by both teams' recent games averaging 2.5 goals and by the usual draw rate in Serie A.
Why AC Milan in front?
Home ground, and little else. Almost nothing between them on our strength rating — 1784 to 1753. Sides this close won 45.8% of 13,745 home games (draw 27.7%, visitors 26.5%).
Why only 44%?
Because on our strength rating there is nothing in it. Serie A home sides under-perform the global norm — and the difference mostly flows to the other outcomes. Serie A homes won 43.3% of 6,145 games vs 44.6% across all 101,389 — outside the noise band, so the tally moves accordingly.
Why is the draw second, ahead of the Atalanta win?
Between sides this level the draw starts at 27.7%. These teams' recent games average 2.5 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 26.5% of 28,356. The goals environment adds 1.2 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Out: Alexis Saelemaekers, an important player, and Matteo Gabbia, a rotation player. This does not change our forecast yet: we are still measuring how much missing players like these cost a team. Out: Giorgio Scalvini, a star player, and Franck Kessié and Eljif Elmas, on provisional ratings. Doubtful: Giacomo Raspadori, a rotation player. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
