Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Trabzonspor 47%, the draw 30%, Başakşehir 23%. It finished Trabzonspor 2–1 Başakşehir.
Trabzonspor's rating edge, but the draw is in play — Trabzonspor are a shade stronger on our strength rating, and that is most of Trabzonspor's 47%. The draw at 30% is lifted by the early-season fade in home wins.
Why Trabzonspor at 47%?
Trabzonspor sit 75 points higher on our strength rating — 1767 to 1691. Sides with a 50–100-point rating edge at home won 50.6% of 10,376 such games.
Why only 47%?
Both sides are inside their first six league games — home wins land softer this early in the season, so this trims Trabzonspor's column. Across 10,693 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 second, ahead of the Başakşehir win?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 26.5%. These teams' recent games average 2.4 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 26.2% of 27,635. Early-season fixtures add 2.1 points to the draw. The goals environment adds 1.4 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Trabzonspor have shed 99 strength-rating points over their last 10 games. Momentum is measured but not yet proven: sliding sides won 34.6% of 9,645 such games vs 34.5% class-expected — inside the noise band, so it stays at 0 points until the receipt clears its evidence bar. Last 6 between them: Trabzonspor 5 wins, 1 draw, Başakşehir 0 wins. Most recently Trabzonspor 1–1 Başakşehir, 4 months ago. Fixture history hasn't carried forward once class is level: past leaders won just 43.1% of 5051 such games — no measurable edge, 0 points. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
