Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Coleraine FC 25%, the draw 22%, HJK Helsinki 53%. It finished Coleraine FC 0–3 HJK Helsinki.
HJK Helsinki's rating gap outweighs Coleraine FC's home ground — HJK Helsinki are clearly the stronger side on our strength rating, and that is most of HJK Helsinki's 53%. The draw at 22% is about what a gap this size usually leaves.
Why HJK Helsinki at 53%?
HJK Helsinki sit 328 points higher on our strength rating — 1048 to 1377. Sides with a more than 300-point rating edge on the road won 65.8% of 5,147 such games. The 300 most similar past games finished 28–23–49.
Why only 53%?
No scored evidence points the other way. 53% is what this rating gap has been worth in games like these; the rest is the draw at 22% and Coleraine FC at 25%.
Why is the draw only 22%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 22.0%. These teams' recent games average 2.8 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 24.6% of 24,687.
What did we measure but not count?
HJK Helsinki have shed 76 strength-rating points over their last 10 games. Momentum is measured but not yet proven: sliding sides won 34.7% of 9,563 such games vs 34.5% class-expected — inside the noise band, so it stays at 0 points until the receipt clears its evidence bar. Coleraine FC have 10 fully-tracked matches with us — under our usual 25-game bar — but their strength rating is anchored to a conservative baseline from the long-run European club ratings list, which carries their wider competitive history into the number. Clubs from leagues we don't fully cover play too few tracked games for a record built from scratch, so their rating chain starts from published long-run club ratings instead of a blind first guess.
