Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave SpVgg Greuther Fürth 31%, the draw 29%, 1. FC Magdeburg 40%. It finished SpVgg Greuther Fürth 1–1 1. FC Magdeburg.
1. FC Magdeburg's rating edge outweighs SpVgg Greuther Fürth'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 29% is lifted by the early-season fade in home wins.
Why 1. FC Magdeburg at 40%?
1. FC Magdeburg sit 124 points higher on our strength rating — 1441 to 1565. Sides with a 100–200-point rating edge on the road won 40.1% of 13,187 such games. Both sides are inside their first six league games — home wins land softer this early in the season, so this trims SpVgg Greuther Fürth's column. Across 11,172 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. The 300 most similar past games finished 39–25–36.
Why only 40%?
No scored evidence points the other way. 40% is what this rating gap has been worth in games like these; the rest is the draw at 29% and SpVgg Greuther Fürth at 31%.
Why the draw at 29%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 27.2%. These teams' recent games average 3.0 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 24.6% of 25,109. Early-season fixtures add 2.0 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
1. FC Magdeburg scored +0.51 goals per game beyond chance-quality lately — hot streaks like that have cooled off. Measured across 2,875 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. SpVgg Greuther Fürth come into this after a busy window — 13 arrivals, 18 departures, and fewer of last season's regular starters still in the eleven. 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). The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
