Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Inter Miami 74%, the draw 15%, Atletico San Luis 11%. It finished Inter Miami 4–2 Atletico San Luis.
Inter Miami's rating gap decides it on neutral ground — Inter Miami are clearly the stronger side on our strength rating, and that is most of Inter Miami's 74%. The draw at 15% is lifted by neutral ground.
Why Inter Miami at 74%?
Inter Miami sit 357 points higher on our strength rating — 1828 to 1472. Sides with a more than 300-point rating edge at home won 79.7% of 5,042 such games.
Why not higher?
Leagues Cup is played on neutral grounds: Inter Miami are the listed home side but get none of the usual home lift, so the class read is re-centred. On grounds we detect as neutral, listed-home sides won 44.6% of 26,816 games vs 45.2% at real homes — so a tournament game away from a side's own ground scores the class edge venue-free, as the average of the home and away reads.
Why is the draw only 15%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 13.7%. These teams' recent games average 4.2 goals — a high-scoring environment. Games in that environment drew 22.8% of 16,837. Neutral ground adds 2.7 points to the draw. The goals environment takes 1.4 points off the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Inter Miami are missing 2 regular starters — Ian Fray, Rodrigo De Paul — about 47% of their usual starting-XI weight. A body count alone told us nothing. Inter Miami have played 3+ games in the last two weeks; their opponents haven't. Between equals, congested home sides won 46.9% of 2413 measured games and congested visitors 28.2% of 2452 — the cells disagree with each other and with the flat rest table, so schedule stays a watch item at 0 points. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
