Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Monza 31%, the draw 29%, Cagliari 40%. It finished Monza 4–0 Cagliari.
Cagliari's stronger rating gives them the edge — Cagliari sit 100 points higher on our strength rating, 1640 to 1541, and home advantage runs weak across Serie A, so we give them 40% to Monza's 31%. The draw sits at 29%, nudged up from the usual 28% for a gap this size by both teams' recent games averaging 2.5 goals and Serie A's usual draw rate.
Why Cagliari at 40%?
Cagliari sit 100 points higher on our strength rating — 1640 to 1541. Sides with a 80–160-point rating edge on the road won 39.9% of 13,873 such games. 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 6,149 games vs 44.6% across all 101,450 — outside the noise band, so the tally moves accordingly. The 300 most similar past games finished 37–29–34.
Why only 40%?
No scored evidence points the other way. 40% is what this rating gap has been worth in games like these; the rest is the draw at 29% and Monza at 31%.
Why the draw at 29%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 27.6%. These teams' recent games average 2.5 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 26.5% of 28,371. The goals environment adds 1.2 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Cagliari have gained 73 strength-rating points over their last 10 games. Momentum is measured but not yet proven: climbing sides won 39.9% of 11,237 such games vs 40.6% class-expected — inside the noise band, so it stays at 0 points until the receipt clears its evidence bar. Monza are newly promoted — game 7 of their first ten at this level, where our rating knows them least. Promoted sides are said to struggle, but our rating already carries most of it: across 3,012 first-ten games since 2016 they won 26.8% where the rating expected 28.1% — inside the noise band, below it in six of the ten full seasons we hold and about level last season. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
