Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Valladolid 34%, the draw 31%, Cordoba 35%. It finished Valladolid 3–1 Cordoba.
Anyone's game — Cordoba are the stronger side on our strength rating, and their control of the ball is not enough to separate them. The draw at 31% is up from the usual 29.0% for a gap this size, as small adjustments add up.
Why Cordoba at 35%?
Cordoba sit 45 points higher on our strength rating — 1378 to 1422. Sides with a 40–80-point rating edge on the road won 32.5% of 10,281 such games. Cordoba hold 6 more possession points (58 to 52 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 40.0% across 5,452 games, from 44.0% when styles were level. The 300 most similar past games finished 38–29–33.
Why only 35%?
No scored evidence points the other way. 35% is what this rating gap has been worth in games like these; the rest is the draw at 31% and Valladolid at 34%.
Why the draw at 31%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 29.0%. These teams' recent games average 2.5 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 26.4% of 28,103. The goals environment adds 1.4 points to the draw. The control factor adds 1.2 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Valladolid sit -0.42 goals per game under chance-quality. For home sides we could not receipt a bounce-back — the measured cells sit inside each other's noise bands — so this is noted and scores 0. Valladolid come into this after a busy window — 14 arrivals and 15 departures over the summer. 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). The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
