Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave PSV Eindhoven 84%, the draw 11%, Fortuna Sittard 5%. It finished PSV Eindhoven 2–2 Fortuna Sittard.
PSV Eindhoven's rating gap decides it — PSV Eindhoven are clearly the stronger side on our strength rating, and that is most of PSV Eindhoven's 84%. The draw at 11% is lifted by the early-season fade in home wins.
Why PSV Eindhoven at 84%?
PSV Eindhoven sit 438 points higher on our strength rating — 1926 to 1488. Sides with a more than 300-point rating edge at home won 79.8% of 5,052 such games. The 300 most similar past games finished 88–7–5.
Why not higher?
Both sides are inside their first six league games — home wins land softer this early in the season, so this trims PSV Eindhoven's column. Across 10,505 opening-stretch games since 2010, home sides won 42.8% where the rating map expected 44.9%, with draws up 2.0 — negative in every season since 2018.
Why is the draw only 11%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 9.2%. These teams' recent games average 4.0 goals — a high-scoring environment. Games in that environment drew 22.8% of 16,858. Early-season fixtures add 2.0 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
PSV Eindhoven average 14 points more possession, but the rating gap here is 438 points. Our control receipt only exists between near-equals — there it moved results; across a class gap we could not measure a separate style edge, so style scores 0 here. PSV Eindhoven have won the last 8 home meetings with Fortuna Sittard. Streaks like this look decisive, but sides on a 3+ home run in a fixture won 58.9% of 4,855 such games vs 58.4% class-expected — the strength that built the streak is already in the rating. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
