Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Gremio 47%, the draw 29%, Internacional 24%. It finished Gremio 3–1 Internacional.
Level sides, Gremio's control of the ball swings it — Nothing separates them on our strength rating, and Gremio's control of the ball gives Gremio the lean. The draw at 29% is lifted by a low-scoring environment.
Why Gremio in front?
Almost nothing between them on our strength rating — 1654 to 1639. Sides this close won 45.6% of 14,556 home games (draw 26.5%, visitors 27.9%). Gremio hold 7 more possession points (48 to 41 in recent games) — and between equals, control has been worth something. Between evenly-matched sides, home teams with this control edge won 47.9% of 5,195 games, vs 44.0% when styles were level.
Why only 47%?
Because on our strength rating there is nothing in it. Level sides split the rest: the draw at 29% and Internacional at 24%.
Why is the draw second, ahead of the Internacional win?
Between sides this level the draw starts at 26.5%. These teams' recent games average 2.1 goals — a low-scoring environment. Games in that environment drew 28.2% of 18,168. The goals environment adds 3.5 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
All square after the first leg (Internacional 0–0 Gremio) — the aggregate is what counts. Two-leg ties bend incentives, and we've now measured them: one- and two-goal first-leg leads carried forward almost exactly as the class table predicts — no measurable edge either way, so 0 points and the aggregate does the talking. Gremio are missing 4 regular starters — Gustavo Martins, Erick Noriega, Juan Nardoni — about 34% of their usual starting-XI weight. Our measured receipt covers one-sided absences only, and the picture here isn't one-sided — both squads are short. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
