Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Cadiz 31%, the draw 31%, Leganes 38%. It finished Cadiz 4–0 Leganes.
Leganes' rating edge, but the draw is in play — Leganes are the stronger side on our strength rating, and that is most of Leganes' 38%. The draw at 31% is lifted by a low-scoring environment.
Why Leganes at 38%?
Leganes sit 88 points higher on our strength rating — 1351 to 1438. Sides with a 80–160-point rating edge on the road won 40.0% of 13,732 such games. The 300 most similar past games finished 39–26–35.
Why only 38%?
No scored evidence points the other way. 38% is what this rating gap has been worth in games like these; the rest is the draw at 31% and Cadiz at 31%.
Why is the draw second, level with the Cadiz win?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 27.6%. These teams' recent games average 2.2 goals — a low-scoring environment. Games in that environment drew 28.2% of 18,719. The goals environment adds 3.1 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Cadiz come into this after a busy window — 15 arrivals, 20 departures, and fewer of last season's regular starters still in the eleven. 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). Leganes have rebuilt the eleven — fewer of last season's regular starters are still starting. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
