Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Eldense 22%, the draw 26%, Eibar 52%. It finished Eldense 1–2 Eibar.
Eibar's rating gap outweighs Eldense's home ground — Eibar are clearly the stronger side on our strength rating, and the early-season home fade on top gives Eibar the lean. The draw at 26% is lifted by the early-season fade in home wins.
Why Eibar at 52%?
Eibar sit 215 points higher on our strength rating — 1463 to 1678. Sides with a 200–300-point rating edge on the road won 52.0% of 6,097 such games. Both sides are inside their first six league games — home wins land softer this early in the season, so this trims Eldense's column. Across 11,181 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 25–27–48.
Why only 52%?
No scored evidence points the other way. 52% is what this rating gap has been worth in games like these; the rest is the draw at 26% and Eldense at 22%.
Why the draw at 26%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 24.0%. These teams' recent games average 2.9 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 24.6% of 25,116. Early-season fixtures add 2.0 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Eldense are newly promoted — game 6 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. Eibar won 3 of the last 4 meetings with Eldense. The record is 3 wins for Eibar, 0 draws and 1 win for Eldense. These were 4 Segunda División games played at both grounds between 28 August 2023 and 13 January 2025. Latest meeting: 13 January 2025 — Eldense 1–3 Eibar. In 5,643 historical matches between similarly rated teams, visiting sides with the stronger head-to-head record won 28.1%. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
