Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Kocaelispor 42%, the draw 28%, Rizespor 30%. It finished Kocaelispor 0–0 Rizespor.
Home advantage gives Kocaelispor a slight lean — With almost nothing between the sides on our strength rating, 1506 to 1512, the usual home advantage is what puts Kocaelispor in front at 42%, even though that rating edges slightly towards Rizespor. The draw sits at 28%, close to the usual 27% for sides this level, nudged up slightly because both teams' recent games average a typical 2.6 goals.
Why Kocaelispor in front?
Home ground, and little else. Almost nothing between them on our strength rating — 1506 to 1512. Sides this close won 42.4% of 15,649 home games (draw 27.2%, visitors 30.4%).
Why only 42%?
Because on our strength rating there is nothing in it. Level sides split the rest: the draw at 28% and Rizespor at 30%.
Why the draw at 28%?
Between sides this level the draw starts at 27.2%. These teams' recent games average 2.6 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 26.4% of 30,357. The goals environment adds 1.1 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Kocaelispor come into this after a busy window — 12 arrivals, 11 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). Out: Massadio Haïdara, an important player, and Tanguy Zoukrou, on a provisional rating. This does not change our forecast yet: we are still measuring how much missing players like these cost a team. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
