AI-assisted match report written from official match data.

Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave GIL Vicente 41%, the draw 32%, Academico Viseu 27%. It finished GIL Vicente 0–1 Academico Viseu.
Level sides, home ground swings it, even this early in the season — Nothing separates them on our strength rating, and GIL Vicente's 41% is home ground and little else. The draw at 32% is lifted by a low-scoring environment.
Why GIL Vicente in front?
Home ground, and little else. Almost nothing between them on our strength rating — 1638 to 1592. Sides this close won 45.6% of 14,604 home games (draw 26.5%, visitors 27.9%).
Why only 41%?
Because on our strength rating there is nothing in it. Both sides are inside their first six league games — home wins land softer this early in the season, so this trims GIL Vicente's column. Across 10,972 opening-stretch games since 2010, home sides won 42.7% 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 Academico Viseu win?
Between sides this level the draw starts at 26.5%. These teams' recent games average 2.2 goals — a low-scoring environment. Games in that environment drew 28.2% of 18,180. The goals environment adds 3.4 points to the draw. Early-season fixtures add 2.0 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
GIL Vicente 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). Academico Viseu are newly promoted — game 5 of their first ten at this level, where our rating knows them least. Promoted sides ran below their rating in nine of the last ten seasons — 26.5% wins in their first ten games where the rating expected 30.0% (2,793 games since 2012), fading but still visible through game nineteen.
