Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Sabah FA 31%, the draw 31%, Hapoel Beer Sheva 38%. It finished Sabah FA 3–2 Hapoel Beer Sheva.
Hapoel Beer Sheva's rating edge, but the draw is in play — Hapoel Beer Sheva are the stronger side on our strength rating, and that is most of Hapoel Beer Sheva's 38%. The draw at 31% is lifted by a low-scoring environment.
Why Hapoel Beer Sheva at 38%?
Hapoel Beer Sheva sit 161 points higher on our strength rating — 1469 to 1631. Sides with a 100–200-point rating edge on the road won 40.1% of 13,091 such games. The 300 most similar past games finished 30–27–43.
Why only 38%?
No scored evidence points the other way. 38% is what this rating gap has been worth in games like these; the rest is the draw at 31% and Sabah FA at 31%.
Why is the draw second, level with the Sabah FA win?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 27.2%. These teams' recent games average 2.2 goals — a low-scoring environment. Games in that environment drew 28.2% of 18,128. The goals environment adds 3.6 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Sabah FA have 21 fully-tracked matches with us — under our usual 25-game bar — but their strength rating is anchored to the long-run European club ratings list, which carries their wider competitive history into the number. 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.
