Our team-strength model rates Rio Ave's attack at 1.28 and their defence at 0.86, where 1.00 is an average side in their competition and a lower defence number is better. The attack is well above average. The defence is close to average. Against an average opponent the model expects them to score about 1.79 and concede about 1.19 goals in a home match. The ratings are refitted every night from the last 180 days of results, with recent matches weighted more heavily.

How these numbers are calculated

Every figure on this page comes from final scores (90 minutes, extra time excluded) stored in the PunterPick results archive, which covers every competition our data provider reports. Percentages are simple counts over the matches listed; nothing is estimated or filled in. The attack and defence ratings come from our own team-strength model, explained on the methodology page.
