Travel and controls do not change the opposition score or rank.

How 72.499 becomes 38 / 100

100 × (72.499 − 67.218) ÷ (81.125 − 67.218). The weakest opposition average in this edition maps to 0; the strongest maps to 100. The scale is relative to this competition and season. A score of 100 is not a probability. Home and away averages show fixture context without an added multiplier.
