Ratings are our own 0-99 scale, built only from results data: ATT = 65 + 30 × log2(attack index), DEF = 65 − 30 × log2(defence index) (index 1.00 = competition average), FRM = 30 + 69 × points from the last 5 games ÷ 15, ELO = 60 + (Elo − 1500) ÷ 9, OVR = 30% ATT + 30% DEF + 20% FRM + 20% ELO. Each is capped to 1-99. The Manager style shows the same numbers on a 1-20 scale (rating ÷ 99 × 20). Ratings use only games before kick-off. Educational analysis, not betting advice.

Pre-game analysis

Galatasaray (23rd, 3 pts from 3) host Stuttgart (6th, 7 pts from 3) in the Champions League table as it stands. Galatasaray have scored 6 and conceded 9 in 3 Champions League games (2.0 and 3.0 per game). Stuttgart have scored 7 and conceded 2 in 3 Champions League games (2.3 and 0.7 per game). Recent form across all competitions (oldest to newest): Galatasaray LWWWW, Stuttgart LDLWW. The goals model expects about 1.6–2.1. Stuttgart are slight favorites: Galatasaray 30%, draw 21%, Stuttgart 49%. The single most likely score is 1–2, but even that only has a 9% chance. Elo ratings (Galatasaray 1695, Stuttgart 1614) give Galatasaray an expected score of 69%, which disagrees with the goals model. Small sample warning: one side has only 3 Champions League games this season, so these numbers lean heavily on competition averages.
