Dijon (4-1-3-2)
Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Reims 58%, the draw 23%, Dijon 19%. It finished Reims 4–2 Dijon.
Reims lead on our strength rating — We give Reims 58% mainly because they sit 118 points higher on our strength rating, 1600 to 1482, and they also start with the usual home advantage. The draw sits at 23%, a little below the usual 25% for a gap this size, because both teams' own recent games average 3.2 goals.
Why Reims at 58%?
Reims sit 118 points higher on our strength rating — 1600 to 1482. Sides with a 80–160-point rating edge at home won 56.7% of 13,355 such games. The 300 most similar past games finished 61–22–17.
Why only 58%?
No scored evidence points the other way. 58% is what this rating gap has been worth in games like these; the rest is the draw at 23% and Dijon at 19%.
Why is the draw only 23%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 24.9%. These teams' recent games average 3.2 goals — a high-scoring environment. Games in that environment drew 23.2% of 16,931. The goals environment takes 2.1 points off the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Reims are unbeaten in their last 8 home Ligue 2 games: 3 wins and 5 draws. The run began on 4 April 2026. Last recorded home league defeat: 14 March 2026 — Reims 1–2 Rodez. Latest home league result: 18 September 2026 — Reims 1–1 Montpellier. Across 13,722 historical matches following an unbeaten home league run of at least six games, hosts won 56.0%, compared with 54.8% expected from team strength. Reims 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). The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
