Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Aston Villa 52%, the draw 23%, Fenerbahçe 25%. It finished Aston Villa 6–0 Fenerbahçe.
Villa's stronger rating gives them a slight lean — Aston Villa sit 70 points higher on our strength rating, 1840 to 1770, and Fenerbahçe's recent run of scoring above their chances is the kind of streak that tends to cool off. We give Villa 52%, while the draw drops from a usual 27% to 23% because of that finishing streak and both sides' high-scoring recent games.
Why Aston Villa at 52%?
Aston Villa sit 70 points higher on our strength rating — 1840 to 1770. Sides with a 40–80-point rating edge at home won 50.3% of 10,389 such games. Fenerbahçe scored +0.65 goals per game beyond chance-quality lately — hot streaks like that have cooled off. Visitors running this hot went on to win 27.3% of 1,461 games, vs 27.9% for visitors finishing normally.
Why only 52%?
Fenerbahçe hold 6 more possession points (52 to 46 in recent games) across a 70-point rating gap. Control now carries a receipt beyond near-equals too: sides with this control edge at a 60–120-point rating gap won 42.7% of 8,632 such games where the class table expected 40.6%.
Why is the draw only 23%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 26.8%. These teams' recent games average 3.2 goals — a high-scoring environment. Games in that environment drew 23.2% of 16,905. The cool-off factor takes 2.5 points off the draw. The goals environment takes 2.3 points off the draw.
