Over 125 matches (Aug 2000 – Jan 2008), Barry Knight drew 32 where the draw model expected 33.9 from those particular fixtures — about 2 fewer, or 0.4 standard errors, which is what the model expected, near enough.

A flat league average would have expected 33.0 instead — "more draws than the league" and "more draws than these fixtures deserved" are different claims. These matches were part of the model's own training set, so its chances were fitted already knowing the results.
