Zira
Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Zira 71%, the draw 17%, Paide 12%. It finished Zira 1–1 Paide.
Zira's rating gap decides it — Zira are clearly the stronger side on our strength rating, and that is most of Zira's 71%. The draw at 17% is held down by a high-scoring environment.
Why Zira at 71%?
Zira sit 311 points higher on our strength rating — 1452 to 1141. Sides with a more than 300-point rating edge at home won 79.8% of 5,033 such games. The 300 most similar past games finished 67–19–14.
Why not higher?
No scored evidence points the other way. 71% is what this rating gap has been worth in games like these; the rest is the draw at 17% and Paide at 12%.
Why is the draw only 17%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 17.9%. These teams' recent games average 3.2 goals — a high-scoring environment. Games in that environment drew 22.8% of 16,814. The goals environment takes 1.5 points off the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Paide have gained 86 strength-rating points over their last 10 games. Momentum is measured but not yet proven: climbing sides won 41.5% of 12,089 such games vs 40.7% class-expected — inside the noise band, so it stays at 0 points until the receipt clears its evidence bar. Zira (19 fully-tracked matches with us) and Paide (24) carry strength ratings anchored to the long-run European club ratings list, so the class read stands on far more than our own short records. Clubs from leagues we don't fully cover play too few tracked games for a record built from scratch, so their rating chain starts from published long-run club ratings instead of a blind first guess.
