Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Kocaelispor 32%, the draw 31%, Amed 37%. It finished Kocaelispor 2–0 Amed.
Amed's rating edge outweighs Kocaelispor's home ground — Amed are the stronger side on our strength rating, and the early-season home fade on top gives Amed the lean. The draw at 31% is lifted by the early-season fade in home wins.
Why Amed at 37%?
Amed sit 174 points higher on our strength rating — 1471 to 1645. Sides with a 100–200-point rating edge on the road won 40.1% of 13,090 such games. Both sides are inside their first six league games — home wins land softer this early in the season, so this trims Kocaelispor's column. Across 10,727 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 33–27–40.
Why only 37%?
Kocaelispor sit -0.34 goals per game below chance-quality — cold streaks like this have bounced back. Finishing swings carry a receipt at this rating gap too: sides finishing this cold won 38.7% of 2,380 such games where the class table expected 36.3%.
Why the draw at 31%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 27.2%. These teams' recent games average 2.7 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 26.2% of 27,653. 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?
Kocaelispor have shed 61 strength-rating points over their last 10 games. Momentum is measured but not yet proven: sliding sides won 34.6% of 9,654 such games vs 34.5% class-expected — inside the noise band, so it stays at 0 points until the receipt clears its evidence bar. Amed are newly promoted — game 2 of their first ten at this level, where our rating knows them least. Promoted sides ran below their rating in nine of the last ten seasons — 26.5% wins in their first ten games where the rating expected 30.0% (2,793 games since 2012), fading but still visible through game nineteen. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
