The full San Lorenzo vs Platense record →

Two sides the ratings cannot separate

San Lorenzo carry a model rating of 6.56 against 6.51 for Platense. 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.

The model expects a tight, low-scoring game

Under the hood the model expects 0.97 goals for San Lorenzo and 0.70 for Platense. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

San Lorenzo rate 0.56 in attack and 1.06 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Platense rate 0.71 and 1.41.

How this was produced

Publicly tracked record so far: 2,309 correct results out of 4,819 settled predictions (48%), with 476 exact scorelines (10%). That log is updated automatically after every match and is never edited.

Full method: how the model works.

Team comparison

Bars show each side's share of the two-team total, based on the model's attack/defence ratings and expected goals for this fixture.

Why the model favours this side

The model gives San Lorenzo the highest probability at 39%, based on each side's rolling attack and defence ratings estimated from recent match data. The model projects 0.97 expected goals for San Lorenzo against 0.70 for Platense. San Lorenzo's attack/defence rating is 0.56/1.06 versus the league average (1.00 = average), compared with 0.71/1.41 for Platense.

How the model reaches 39% for San Lorenzo to win

Start from two average sides on neutral ground: 34% for San Lorenzo to win. Then home advantage adds 7 points, San Lorenzo's ratings take away 15 points and Platense's ratings add 13 points, which lands on the published 39%.

  1. Two average sides, neutral ground34%
  2. Home advantage41%+7
  3. San Lorenzo's ratings26%−15
  4. Platense's ratings39%+13

Each step adds one input to the step before. In another order the steps would differ in size; the end point would not.
