Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Viking 10%, the draw 13%, Bayern München 77%. It finished Viking 3–3 Bayern München.
Bayern München's strength gap drives a one-sided forecast — We give Bayern München 77% mainly because our strength rating puts them 566 points higher, 2072 to 1506, a gap far bigger than the usual home advantage Viking start with. The draw sits at 13%, a little below the usual rate for a gap this size, as both teams' own recent games average 4.2 goals.
Why Bayern München at 77%?
Bayern München sit 566 points higher on our strength rating — 2072 to 1506. Sides with a more than 240-point rating edge on the road won 65.6% of 5,864 such games. The 300 most similar past games finished 8–12–80.
Why not higher?
No scored evidence points the other way. 77% is what this rating gap has been worth in games like these; the rest is the draw at 13% and Viking at 10%.
Why is the draw only 13%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 13.9%. These teams' recent games average 4.2 goals — a high-scoring environment. Games in that environment drew 23.2% of 16,897. The goals environment takes 1.2 points off the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Bayern München have averaged 25 percentage points more possession than Viking in recent games. That doesn’t change our forecast here. Viking have 14 fully-tracked matches with us — under our usual 25-game bar — but their strength rating is anchored to the long-run European club ratings list, which carries their wider competitive history into the number. Clubs from leagues we don't fully cover play too few tracked games for a record built from scratch, so their rating chain starts from published long-run club ratings instead of a blind first guess.
