Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave 1. FC Nürnberg 39%, the draw 26%, VfL Wolfsburg 35%. It finished 1. FC Nürnberg 4–4 VfL Wolfsburg.
Home ground outweighs VfL Wolfsburg's rating edge — VfL Wolfsburg are the stronger side on our strength rating, but home ground gives 1. FC Nürnberg the lean. The draw at 26% is held down by a high-scoring environment.
Why 1. FC Nürnberg at 39%?
Home ground, against the rating. VfL Wolfsburg sit 58 points higher on our strength rating — 1502 to 1560. Sides with a 40–80-point rating edge on the road won 32.6% of 10,361 such games.
Why only 39%?
Because VfL Wolfsburg are the stronger side on our strength rating. 1. FC Nürnberg scored +0.83 goals per game beyond chance-quality — home sides this hot gave some of it back. Opponents of hot-finishing home sides won 28.7% of 1,465 games, vs 27.7% against normal finishing.
Why the draw at 26%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 29.2%. These teams' recent games average 3.4 goals — a high-scoring environment. Games in that environment drew 23.2% of 16,847. The goals environment takes 2.5 points off the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
1. FC Nürnberg have gained 92 strength-rating points over their last 10 games. Momentum is measured but not yet proven: climbing sides won 39.9% of 11,169 such games vs 40.5% class-expected — inside the noise band, so it stays at 0 points until the receipt clears its evidence bar. VfL Wolfsburg are 6 games into a new manager (Tobias Strobl), appointed 55 days ago. The famous new-manager bounce doesn't survive its receipt: sides with a new manager beat their rating by 0.9 points over 33,420 games — but sides on an equally bad run who kept their manager beat it by 2.4 over 31,777. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
