Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Eibar 46%, the draw 29%, Granada CF 25%. It finished Eibar 3–0 Granada CF.
Eibar's rating edge, but the draw is in play — Eibar are a shade stronger on our strength rating, and Granada CF's hot finishing due to cool on top gives Eibar the lean. The draw at 29% is lifted by the early-season fade in home wins.
Why Eibar at 46%?
Eibar sit 53 points higher on our strength rating — 1637 to 1584. Sides with a 50–100-point rating edge at home won 50.5% of 10,431 such games. Granada CF scored +0.31 goals per game beyond chance-quality lately — hot streaks like that have cooled off. Visitors running this hot went on to win 29.0% of 1,478 games, vs 29.1% for visitors finishing normally.
Why only 46%?
Granada CF hold 8 more possession points (52 to 44 in recent games) — and between equals, control has been worth something. Between evenly-matched sides, when the visitors held this control edge the home team's win rate fell to 40.2% across 5,575 games, from 44.0% when styles were level. Both sides are inside their first six league games — home wins land softer this early in the season, so this trims Eibar'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.
Why is the draw second, ahead of the Granada CF win?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 26.6%. These teams' recent games average 2.7 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 26.2% of 27,753. Early-season fixtures add 2.0 points to the draw. The cool-off factor takes 1.8 points off the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Granada CF have rebuilt the eleven — fewer of last season's regular starters are still starting. Squad turnover reads dramatic but hasn't moved results once the rating is controlled: the busiest windows landed within noise across 5,368 games, rebuilt elevens likewise across 5,446, and even losing the most regular starters showed nothing (5,336). Granada CF are winless in their last 8 visits to Eibar. "Cursed ground" stories don't survive the receipts: winless visitors won 20.4% of 5,669 return visits vs 21.4% class-expected — the rating's own read already covers it.
