Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave De Treffers 42%, the draw 26%, Heracles 32%. It finished De Treffers 1–0 Heracles.
Home advantage gives De Treffers a slight lean — With almost nothing between the sides on our strength rating, home advantage puts De Treffers slightly ahead at 42%, though Heracles have scored below what their chances deserved, and cold streaks like that have tended to bounce back. The draw sits at 26%, a little under the usual 27.5%, because both teams' recent games average 3.5 goals.
Why De Treffers in front?
Home ground, and little else. Almost nothing between them on our strength rating — 1339 to 1333. Sides this close won 46.0% of 14,554 home games (draw 27.5%, visitors 26.6%).
Why only 42%?
Because on our strength rating there is nothing in it. Heracles sit -0.55 goals per game below chance-quality — cold streaks like this have bounced back. Visitors this cold went on to win 32.0% of 1,664 games, vs 27.8% for visitors finishing normally.
Why the draw at 26%?
Between sides this level the draw starts at 27.5%. These teams' recent games average 3.5 goals — a high-scoring environment. Games in that environment drew 23.2% of 18,489. The goals environment takes 2.3 points off the draw. The bounce-back factor adds 1.1 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Heracles have shed 73 strength-rating points over their last 10 games. Momentum is measured but not yet proven: sliding sides won 34.0% of 10,392 such games vs 33.3% class-expected — inside the noise band, so it stays at 0 points until the receipt clears its evidence bar. De Treffers arrive with 8 fully-tracked matches, so their strength number is a first estimate that will move quickly; Heracles bring a 351-game record. New-to-the-record sides are where our rating knows least.
