Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Estoril 35%, the draw 34%, Famalicao 31%. It finished Estoril 1–1 Famalicao.
Anyone's game — Famalicao are the stronger side on our strength rating, and the early-season home fade is not enough to separate them. The draw at 34% is lifted by a low-scoring environment.
Why Estoril at 35%?
Home ground, against the rating. Famalicao sit 95 points higher on our strength rating — 1607 to 1702. Sides with a 50–100-point rating edge on the road won 32.9% of 10,488 such games.
Why only 35%?
Because Famalicao are the stronger side on our strength rating. Both sides are inside their first six league games — home wins land softer this early in the season, so this trims Estoril's column. Across 10,501 opening-stretch games since 2010, home sides won 42.8% where the rating map expected 44.9%, with draws up 2.0 — negative in every season since 2018.
Why is the draw second, ahead of the Famalicao win?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 28.3%. These teams' recent games average 2.2 goals — a low-scoring environment. Games in that environment drew 28.2% of 18,055. The goals environment adds 3.8 points to the draw. Early-season fixtures add 2.0 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Last 6 between them: Estoril 2 wins, 0 draws, Famalicao 4 wins. Most recently Estoril 0–1 Famalicao, 3 months ago. Fixture history hasn't carried forward once class is level: past leaders won just 28.0% of 5561 such games — no measurable edge, 0 points. Famalicao's last five: D-W-D-D-W — clearly the hotter side on recent results, and unbeaten in their last 12. Between equals, recent form told us almost nothing: the home side won 44.8% of 2179 games when clearly hotter and 42.9% of 3986 when clearly colder.
