Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Atletico Madrid 47%, the draw 25%, Manchester United 28%. It finished Atletico Madrid 2–0 Manchester United.
Home advantage gives Atletico Madrid a slight lean — With almost nothing between the sides on our strength rating, the usual home advantage puts Atletico Madrid in front at 47%, though their scoring running ahead of their chances pulls slightly towards Manchester United. The draw starts near 28%, the usual rate for evenly matched sides, and drops to 25% because both teams' recent games average 3.5 goals.
Why Atletico Madrid in front?
Home ground, and little else. Almost nothing between them on our strength rating — 1849 to 1820. Sides this close won 45.8% of 13,716 home games (draw 27.7%, visitors 26.6%).
Why only 47%?
Because on our strength rating there is nothing in it. Atletico Madrid scored +0.37 goals per game beyond chance-quality — home sides this hot gave some of it back. Opponents of hot-finishing home sides won 28.6% of 1,478 games, vs 27.6% against normal finishing.
Why the draw at 25%?
Between sides this level the draw starts at 27.7%. These teams' recent games average 3.5 goals — a high-scoring environment. Games in that environment drew 23.2% of 16,897. The goals environment takes 2.4 points off the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Out: Luke Shaw, a star player, Kobbie Mainoo, an important player, and Benjamin Šeško and Patrick Dorgu, rotation players. This does not change our forecast yet: we are still measuring how much missing players like these cost a team. Last five: Atletico Madrid L-W-W-W-W, Manchester United W-L-L-D-D — Atletico Madrid are clearly the hotter side on recent results. Between equals, recent form told us almost nothing: the home side won 43.4% of 1900 games when clearly hotter and 43.7% of 3646 when clearly colder.
