Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Cremonese 65%, the draw 27%, Virtus Entella 8%. It finished Cremonese 0–0 Virtus Entella.
Cremonese's rating gap, but the draw is in play — Cremonese are clearly the stronger side on our strength rating, and that is most of Cremonese's 65%. The draw at 27% is helped by a draw-heavy league.
Why Cremonese at 65%?
Cremonese sit 274 points higher on our strength rating — 1622 to 1347. Sides with a 200–300-point rating edge at home won 67.1% of 6,004 such games. The 300 most similar past games finished 71–18–11.
Why only 65%?
Serie B home sides under-perform the global norm — and the difference mostly flows to draws (32.2% vs 24.9% norm) and away wins (26.1% vs 30.2%). Serie B homes won 41.7% of 4,053 games vs 44.9% across all 100,303 — outside the noise band, so the tally moves accordingly. Both sides are inside their first six league games — home wins land softer this early in the season, so this trims Cremonese's column. Across 11,181 opening-stretch games since 2010, home sides won 42.7% where the rating map expected 44.9%, with draws up 2.0 — negative in every season since 2018.
Why is the draw second, ahead of the Virtus Entella win?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 18.4%. These teams' recent games average 2.8 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 24.6% of 25,116. Serie B runs draw-heavy, adding 7.4 points. Early-season fixtures add 2.0 points to the draw.
