Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Santa Clara 31%, the draw 31%, SC Braga 38%. It finished Santa Clara 0–0 SC Braga.
SC Braga's rating edge, but the draw is in play — SC Braga are the stronger side on our strength rating, and that is most of SC Braga's 38%. The draw at 31% is lifted by a low-scoring environment.
Why SC Braga at 38%?
SC Braga sit 197 points higher on our strength rating — 1678 to 1875. Sides with a 100–200-point rating edge on the road won 40.2% of 13,207 such games. The 300 most similar past games finished 26–28–46.
Why only 38%?
No scored evidence points the other way. 38% is what this rating gap has been worth in games like these; the rest is the draw at 31% and Santa Clara at 31%.
Why is the draw second, level with the Santa Clara win?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 27.2%. These teams' recent games average 2.2 goals — a low-scoring environment. Games in that environment drew 28.1% of 18,230. The goals environment adds 3.5 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
SC Braga have averaged 15 percentage points more possession than Santa Clara in recent games. That doesn’t change our forecast here. Santa Clara have gained 128 strength-rating points over their last 10 games.

The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
