Atletico Grau

No player in Primera División's leading scorers — 26 league goals as a side.

Top 3 by league goals this season. Player availability is not part of the model — injuries and suspensions are a planned improvement.

Two sides the ratings cannot separate

Cienciano carry a model rating of 6.38 against 6.33 for Atletico Grau. The scale is anchored so that an average side in one of Europe's big five leagues sits at 6.85, and it is adjusted for the strength of each team's league, so the two numbers are comparable even across borders.

A gap that small is inside the noise of the rating itself — treat the two as level.

What the model expects

Under the hood the model expects 1.56 goals for Cienciano and 1.02 for Atletico Grau. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

Cienciano rate 0.67 in attack and 1.73 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Atletico Grau rate 0.49 and 1.43.

How this was produced

Publicly tracked record so far: 1,776 correct results out of 3,725 settled predictions (48%), with 376 exact scorelines (10%). That log is updated automatically after every match and is never edited.

Full method: how the model works.

From the first whistle this page keeps going: the win probabilities at the top are recalculated as the match plays out, reading the score, the clock and any sendings-off. The same model, asked how many goals are left rather than how many there will be.
