Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Galatasaray 68%, the draw 21%, Çorum FK 11%. It finished Galatasaray 2–2 Çorum FK.
Galatasaray's rating gap decides it — Galatasaray are clearly the stronger side on our strength rating, and that is most of Galatasaray's 68%. The draw at 21% is lifted by the early-season fade in home wins.
Why Galatasaray at 68%?
Galatasaray sit 269 points higher on our strength rating — 1894 to 1625. Sides with a 200–300-point rating edge at home won 67.0% of 5,924 such games. The 300 most similar past games finished 73–17–10.
Why only 68%?
Both sides are inside their first six league games — home wins land softer this early in the season, so this trims Galatasaray's column. Across 10,546 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.
Why is the draw only 21%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 17.9%. These teams' recent games average 2.7 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 26.2% of 27,554. Early-season fixtures add 2.1 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Galatasaray have shed 83 strength-rating points over their last 10 games. Momentum is measured but not yet proven: sliding sides won 34.7% of 9,608 such games vs 34.5% class-expected — inside the noise band, so it stays at 0 points until the receipt clears its evidence bar. Galatasaray are unbeaten in their last 35 league games at home. Rolling home runs look imposing but sides on a 6+ run won 56.3% of 13,488 games vs 54.6% class-expected — and in our walked test the rating already carried it. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
