Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Atletico Paranaense 48%, the draw 30%, Internacional 22%. It finished Atletico Paranaense 2–0 Internacional.
Level sides, home ground swings it — Nothing separates them on our strength rating, and Brasileirão Série A home advantage gives Atletico Paranaense the lean. The draw at 30% is helped by a draw-heavy league.
Why Atletico Paranaense in front?
Home ground, mostly. Almost nothing between them on our strength rating — 1694 to 1646. Sides this close won 45.6% of 14,392 home games (draw 26.5%, visitors 27.9%). Brasileirão Série A home sides out-perform the global norm — and the difference mostly flows to draws (26.9% vs 24.9% norm) and away wins (24.9% vs 30.2%). Brasileirão Série A homes won 48.3% of 4,368 games vs 44.9% across all 98,308 — outside the noise band, so the tally moves accordingly.
Why only 48%?
Because on our strength rating there is nothing in it. Level sides split the rest: the draw at 30% and Internacional at 22%.
Why is the draw second, ahead of the Internacional win?
Between sides this level the draw starts at 26.5%. These teams' recent games average 2.5 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 26.2% of 27,399. Brasileirão Série A runs draw-heavy, adding 2.0 points. The goals environment adds 1.5 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Atletico Paranaense sit -0.39 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. Atletico Paranaense are unbeaten in their last 8 league games at home. Rolling home runs look imposing but sides on a 6+ run won 56.2% of 13,416 games vs 54.6% class-expected — and in our walked test the rating already carried it. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
