Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Bournemouth 45%, the draw 26%, AC Milan 29%. It finished Bournemouth 3–0 AC Milan.
Home advantage gives Bournemouth a slight lean — With almost nothing between the sides on our strength rating, Bournemouth's home advantage, which runs strong for home sides in the UEFA Europa League, puts them in front at 45%, though AC Milan's habit of controlling the ball pulls the other way. The draw starts near 28% for sides this level, dips with this competition's usual draw rate and lands at 26%.
Why Bournemouth in front?
Home ground, mostly. Almost nothing between them on our strength rating — 1808 to 1793. Sides this close won 45.8% of 13,759 home games (draw 27.7%, visitors 26.5%). UEFA Europa League home sides out-perform the global norm — and the difference mostly flows to draws (23.2% vs 25.4% norm). UEFA Europa League homes won 47.0% of 4,474 games vs 44.6% across all 101,492 — outside the noise band, so the tally moves accordingly.
Why only 45%?
Because on our strength rating there is nothing in it. AC Milan hold 5 more possession points (57 to 52 in recent games) — and between equals, control has been worth something. Between evenly-matched sides, when the visitors held this control edge the home team's win rate fell to 39.8% across 5,511 games, from 44.0% when styles were level.
Why the draw at 26%?
Between sides this level the draw starts at 27.7%. These teams' recent games average 3.1 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 24.8% of 25,276. UEFA Europa League produces fewer draws than most, taking 2.2 points off. The control factor adds 1.4 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Bournemouth sit -0.44 goals per game under chance-quality. For home sides we could not receipt a bounce-back — the measured cells sit inside each other's noise bands — so this is noted and scores 0. Out: Alex Scott, an important player, and Eli Junior Kroupi, a rotation player. This does not change our forecast yet: we are still measuring how much missing players like these cost a team. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
