Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Laval 37%, the draw 30%, RED Star FC 93 33%. It finished Laval 1–2 RED Star FC 93.
Home ground outweighs RED Star FC 93's rating edge — RED Star FC 93 are the stronger side on our strength rating, but home ground gives Laval the lean. The draw at 30% is lifted by the early-season fade in home wins.
Why Laval at 37%?

Why only 37%?
