Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave ADO Den Haag 33%, the draw 28%, Fortuna Sittard 39%. It finished ADO Den Haag 2–3 Fortuna Sittard.
Fortuna Sittard's rating edge outweighs ADO Den Haag's home ground — Fortuna Sittard are the stronger side on our strength rating, and the early-season home fade on top gives Fortuna Sittard the lean. The draw at 28% is held down by a high-scoring environment.
Why Fortuna Sittard at 39%?
Fortuna Sittard sit 122 points higher on our strength rating — 1404 to 1526. Sides with a 100–200-point rating edge on the road won 40.1% of 13,146 such games. Both sides are inside their first six league games — home wins land softer this early in the season, so this trims ADO Den Haag's column. Across 10,972 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. The 300 most similar past games finished 37–24–39.
Why only 39%?
ADO Den Haag hold 14 more possession points (52 to 38 in recent games) across a 122-point rating gap. Control now carries a receipt beyond near-equals too: sides with this control edge at a 75–150-point rating gap won 42.6% of 8,658 such games where the class table expected 41.3%.
Why the draw at 28%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 27.2%. These teams' recent games average 3.6 goals — a high-scoring environment. Games in that environment drew 22.8% of 17,128. The goals environment takes 2.3 points off the draw. Early-season fixtures add 2.0 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
ADO Den Haag are newly promoted — game 5 of their first ten at this level, where our rating knows them least. Promoted sides ran below their rating in nine of the last ten seasons — 26.5% wins in their first ten games where the rating expected 30.0% (2,793 games since 2012), fading but still visible through game nineteen. Last 5 between them: ADO Den Haag 1 win, 1 draw, Fortuna Sittard 3 wins. Most recently ADO Den Haag 0–3 Fortuna Sittard, 5 years ago. Fixture history hasn't carried forward once class is level: past leaders won just 28.1% of 5618 such games — no measurable edge, 0 points. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
