Sirius · Why these numbers
Before kick-off Sirius gave Minnesota United FC 29%, the draw 23%, St. Louis City 48%. It finished Minnesota United FC 3–2 St. Louis City.
St. Louis City's strength edge, tempered by home advantage — St. Louis City lead mainly because our strength rating puts them 171 points higher, 1608 to 1437, though home advantage runs strong across Major League Soccer and pulls some way back towards Minnesota. We give the draw 23%, a little below the usual 25% for a gap this size, because both teams' own recent games average 4.5 goals.
Why St. Louis City at 48%?
St. Louis City sit 171 points higher on our strength rating — 1608 to 1437. Sides with a 160–240-point rating edge on the road won 50.9% of 6,689 such games. The 300 most similar past games finished 29–27–44.
Why only 48%?
Major League Soccer home sides out-perform the global norm — and the difference mostly flows to away wins (25.7% vs 30.0%). Major League Soccer homes won 49.2% of 5,237 games vs 44.6% across all 101,264 — outside the noise band, so the tally moves accordingly.
Why is the draw only 23%?
With a rating gap this size the draw starts at 25.0%. These teams' recent games average 4.5 goals — a high-scoring environment. Games in that environment drew 23.2% of 16,940. The goals environment takes 2.1 points off the draw.
What did we measure but not count?
St. Louis City have averaged 10 percentage points more possession than Minnesota United FC in recent games. That doesn’t change our forecast here. Minnesota United FC scored +0.37 goals per game beyond chance-quality lately — hot streaks like that have cooled off. Measured across 2,843 games at this rating gap, hot-finishing sides won 41.4% vs 42.3% class-expected — inside the noise band, so it scores 0 until the receipt clears its evidence bar. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
