Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Sao Paulo 46%, the draw 30%, Corinthians 24%. It finished Sao Paulo 0–0 Corinthians.
Home advantage gives Sao Paulo a slight lean — With almost nothing between the sides on our strength rating, Sao Paulo's home advantage puts them in front at 46%, helped by strong home results across the Brasileirão Série A, though Corinthians' greater share of the ball pulls the other way. The draw sits at 30%, up from a usual 27.5% thanks to the competition's draw rate and Corinthians' control of the ball.
Why Sao Paulo in front?
Home ground, mostly. Almost nothing between them on our strength rating — 1502 to 1492. Sides this close won 46.0% of 14,586 home games (draw 27.5%, visitors 26.6%). Brasileirão Série A home sides out-perform the global norm — and the difference mostly flows to draws (26.9% vs 25.3% norm) and away wins (24.8% vs 30.0%). Brasileirão Série A homes won 48.3% of 4,511 games vs 44.6% across all 108,387 — outside the noise band, so the tally moves accordingly.
Why only 46%?
Because on our strength rating there is nothing in it. Corinthians hold 7 more possession points (56 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 39.7% across 5,963 games, from 44.1% when styles were level.
Why is the draw second, ahead of the Corinthians win?
Between sides this level the draw starts at 27.5%. These teams' recent games average 2.8 goals — a typical goals environment. Games in that environment drew 24.7% of 27,340. Brasileirão Série A runs draw-heavy, adding 1.6 points. The control factor adds 1.4 points to the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
Sao Paulo sit -0.32 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. Corinthians have shed 83 strength-rating points over their last 10 games. Momentum is measured but not yet proven: sliding sides won 34.1% of 10,429 such games vs 33.3% class-expected — inside the noise band, so it stays at 0 points until the receipt clears its evidence bar. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
