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 national team ever rated, sides that no longer play included. A measure of strength, not a forecast of the next result. Computed 15 Oct 2026.

Luck or skill how this is worked out ›

Over 268 matches (Feb 1953 – Sep 2026), Gambia drew 75 where the draw model expected 69.8 from those particular fixtures — about 5 more, or 0.7 standard errors, which is what the model expected, near enough.

A flat league average would have expected 68.3 instead — "more draws than the league" and "more draws than these fixtures deserved" are different claims. 2 of the matches carry no model probability and are left out. These matches were part of the model's own training set, so its chances were fitted already knowing the results.
