Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Fenerbahçe 48%, the draw 24%, AS Roma 28%. It finished Fenerbahçe 1–1 AS Roma.
Level sides, AS Roma's hot finishing due to cool swings it Fenerbahçe's way — Nothing separates them on our strength rating, and AS Roma's hot finishing due to cool gives Fenerbahçe the lean. The draw at 24% is nudged down by the same factors that shape the win chances.
Why Fenerbahçe in front?
Almost nothing between them on our strength rating — 1939 to 1935. Sides this close won 45.7% of 14,630 home games (draw 26.5%, visitors 27.9%). AS Roma scored +0.37 goals per game beyond chance-quality lately — hot streaks like that have cooled off. Visitors running this hot went on to win 28.8% of 1,495 games, vs 29.2% for visitors finishing normally.
Why only 48%?
Because on our strength rating there is nothing in it. Level sides split the rest: the draw at 24% and AS Roma at 28%.
Why the draw at 24%?
Between sides this level the draw starts at 26.5%. These teams' recent games average 2.8 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 24.6% of 25,037. The cool-off factor takes 1.6 points off the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Fenerbahçe are missing 3 regular starters — Mattéo Guendouzi, Talisca, Kerem Aktürkoğlu — about 32% of their usual starting-XI weight. A body count alone told us nothing. Last five: Fenerbahçe D-W-W-W-L, AS Roma W-W-W-W-W — AS Roma are clearly the hotter side on recent results, and unbeaten in their last 10 in all competitions (9 wins, 1 draw), a run going back to April 2026. Between equals, recent form told us almost nothing: the home side won 44.7% of 2205 games when clearly hotter and 42.8% of 4030 when clearly colder. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
