What this team's results have earned: every match in the database is replayed in date order, both sides start at 1500 and the winner takes points from the loser. The rating is the one it held after its last rated match, and the rank counts every club ever rated, sides that no longer play included. A measure of strength, not a forecast of the next result.

Over 449 matches (Jan 2015 – Nov 2026), 1. FC Köln drew 135 where the draw model expected 107.9 from those particular fixtures — about 27 more, or 3.0 standard errors, well beyond the model — which is as likely to be a gap in the model as a property of 1. FC Köln.

As unusual as a coin landing the same way 8 times running. A flat league average would have expected 113.1 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.
