Sirius · Why these numbers

Before kick-off Sirius gave RB Bragantino 42%, the draw 31%, Bahia 27%. It finished RB Bragantino 2–3 Bahia.

Level sides, home ground holds off Bahia's control of the ball — Nothing separates them on our strength rating, and Brasileirão Série A home advantage gives RB Bragantino the lean. The draw at 31% is helped by a draw-heavy league.

Why RB Bragantino in front?

Home ground, mostly. Almost nothing between them on our strength rating — 1661 to 1686. Sides this close won 43.1% of 15,887 home games (draw 26.7%, visitors 30.2%). Brasileirão Série A home sides out-perform the global norm — and the difference mostly flows to draws (27.0% vs 24.9% norm) and away wins (24.8% vs 30.2%). Brasileirão Série A homes won 48.2% of 4,425 games vs 44.9% across all 99,727 — outside the noise band, so the tally moves accordingly.

Why only 42%?

Because on our strength rating there is nothing in it. Bahia hold 9 more possession points (58 to 49 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 40.2% across 5,567 games, from 44.0% when styles were level.

Why is the draw second, ahead of the Bahia win?

Between sides this level the draw starts at 26.7%. These teams' recent games average 2.5 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 26.2% of 27,731. Brasileirão Série A runs draw-heavy, adding 2.1 points. The goals environment adds 1.5 points to the draw.

What did we measure but not count?

Last 6 between them: RB Bragantino 1 win, 0 draws, Bahia 5 wins. Most recently Bahia 2–0 RB Bragantino, 6 months ago. Fixture history hasn't carried forward once class is level: past leaders won just 28.1% of 5612 such games — no measurable edge, 0 points.
