Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Estoril 45%, the draw 29%, Moreirense 26%. It finished Estoril 1–3 Moreirense.
Estoril's control of the ball gives them a slight lean — With almost nothing between the sides on our strength rating, Estoril's home advantage and their habit of holding more of the ball, 48 to 41 possession in recent games, put them in front at 45%, though Moreirense's fractionally higher rating pulls slightly the other way. The draw sits at 29%, up from a usual 27% because both teams' recent games average just 2.3 goals.
Why Estoril in front?
Almost nothing between them on our strength rating — 1439 to 1456. Sides this close won 42.4% of 15,614 home games (draw 27.2%, visitors 30.4%). Estoril hold 7 more possession points (48 to 41 in recent games) — and between equals, control has been worth something. Between evenly-matched sides, home teams with this control edge won 48.3% of 5,598 games, vs 44.0% when styles were level.
Why only 45%?
Because on our strength rating there is nothing in it. Level sides split the rest: the draw at 29% and Moreirense at 26%.
Why is the draw second, ahead of the Moreirense win?
Between sides this level the draw starts at 27.2%. These teams' recent games average 2.3 goals — a low-scoring environment. Games in that environment drew 28.2% of 19,773. The goals environment adds 3.0 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Estoril sit -0.38 goals per game under chance-quality. For home sides we could not receipt a bounce-back — the measured cells sit inside each other's noise bands — so this is noted and scores 0. Estoril have shed 75 strength-rating points over their last 10 games. Momentum is measured but not yet proven: sliding sides won 34.0% of 10,371 such games vs 33.3% class-expected — inside the noise band, so it stays at 0 points until the receipt clears its evidence bar. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
