Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave VfL Osnabrück 32%, the draw 27%, 1. FC Magdeburg 41%. It finished VfL Osnabrück 0–3 1. FC Magdeburg.
1. FC Magdeburg's rating edge outweighs VfL Osnabrück's home ground — 1. FC Magdeburg are the stronger side on our strength rating, and the early-season home fade on top gives 1. FC Magdeburg the lean. The draw at 27% is about what a gap this size usually leaves.
Why 1. FC Magdeburg at 41%?
1. FC Magdeburg sit 171 points higher on our strength rating — 1321 to 1492. Sides with a 100–200-point rating edge on the road won 40.1% of 13,044 such games. Both sides are inside their first six league games — home wins land softer this early in the season, so this trims VfL Osnabrück's column. Across 10,563 opening-stretch games since 2010, home sides won 42.8% where the rating map expected 44.9%, with draws up 2.1 — negative in every season since 2018. The 300 most similar past games finished 33–26–41.
Why only 41%?
No scored evidence points the other way. 41% is what this rating gap has been worth in games like these; the rest is the draw at 27% and VfL Osnabrück at 32%.
Why the draw at 27%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 27.2%. These teams' recent games average 3.3 goals — a high-scoring environment. Games in that environment drew 22.8% of 16,913. The goals environment takes 2.3 points off the draw. Early-season fixtures add 2.1 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
1. FC Magdeburg average 5 points more possession, but the rating gap here is 171 points. Our control receipt only exists between near-equals — there it moved results; across a class gap we could not measure a separate style edge, so style scores 0 here. 1. FC Magdeburg scored +0.47 goals per game beyond chance-quality lately — hot streaks like that have cooled off. Measured across 2,760 games at this rating gap, hot-finishing sides won 42.1% vs 42.9% class-expected — inside the noise band, so it scores 0 until the receipt clears its evidence bar. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
