Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Carrarese 34%, the draw 37%, Benevento 29%. It finished Carrarese 0–1 Benevento.
Level sides, home ground holds off Benevento's control of the ball — Nothing separates them on our strength rating, and Carrarese's 34% is home ground and little else. The draw at 37% is the likeliest single result, helped by a draw-heavy league.
Why Carrarese in front?
Home ground, and little else. Almost nothing between them on our strength rating — 1387 to 1403. Sides this close won 43.1% of 16,010 home games (draw 26.7%, visitors 30.2%).
Why only 34%?
Because on our strength rating there is nothing in it. Benevento hold 6 more possession points (50 to 44 in recent games) — and between equals, control has been worth something. Between evenly-matched sides, when the visitors held this control edge the home team's win rate fell to 40.3% across 5,596 games, from 43.9% when styles were level. 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.
Why is the draw the likeliest result?
Between sides this level the draw starts at 26.7%. These teams' recent games average 3.0 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.
What did we measure but not count?
Carrarese have shed 75 strength-rating points over their last 10 games. Momentum is measured but not yet proven: sliding sides won 34.7% of 9,765 such games vs 34.6% class-expected — inside the noise band, so it stays at 0 points until the receipt clears its evidence bar. Carrarese come into this after a busy window — 16 arrivals and 18 departures over the summer. 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). The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
