Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave FK Jablonec 32%, the draw 31%, Rangers 37%. It finished FK Jablonec 1–0 Rangers.
Rangers' rating edge outweighs FK Jablonec's home ground — Rangers are the stronger side on our strength rating, and their cold finishing due to recover plus their control of the ball on top give Rangers the lean. The draw at 31% is lifted by a low-scoring environment.
Why Rangers at 37%?
Rangers sit 82 points higher on our strength rating — 1603 to 1684. Sides with a 50–100-point rating edge on the road won 32.9% of 10,541 such games. Rangers sit -0.54 goals per game below chance-quality — cold streaks like this have bounced back. Visitors this cold went on to win 32.6% of 1,324 games, vs 28.9% for visitors finishing normally. Rangers hold 7 more possession points (52 to 45 in recent games) across a 82-point rating gap. Control now carries a receipt beyond near-equals too: sides with this control edge at a 75–150-point rating gap won 42.6% of 8,629 such games where the class table expected 41.3%. The 300 most similar past games finished 38–31–31.
Why only 37%?
No scored evidence points the other way. 37% is what this rating gap has been worth in games like these; the rest is the draw at 31% and FK Jablonec at 32%.
Why the draw at 31%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 28.3%. These teams' recent games average 2.5 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 26.2% of 27,666. The goals environment adds 1.5 points to the draw. The control factor adds 1.2 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Rangers have shed 65 strength-rating points over their last 10 games. Momentum is measured but not yet proven: sliding sides won 34.7% of 9,664 such games vs 34.5% class-expected — inside the noise band, so it stays at 0 points until the receipt clears its evidence bar.
