FIFA ranking: October 2022 probable results

Here are the probable results of all 159 played and currently scheduled matches up to and including October 2nd, used to calculate the October 2022 probable ranking. The results are generated using elo ratings. Also the already played matches since August 22nd, (probably) counting for the October ranking, are presented.

In the first column is indicated if the match is included or not, according to my inclusion-method. You see after the match identification data, the I-factor, the Home Team Win Expectancy (We) according to elo and according to FIFA in %. 


For the already played matches the match result and the exchanged points are given. 

For the scheduled matches the points exchanged in case of Win, Draw or Loss of the home team are given. In cases where matches can go to PSO, also the points exchanged when the home team wins (PSO-W) of loses (PSO-L) the penalty shoot-out are given.

Normally the home team's gained points will be the away-team's lost points. Still, both are given because there are in FIFA's calculation approach cases when they will not be the same: PSO-matches and knock-out matches in final competitions.

Before posting comments like: "Hey, my team actually beat the other team ! It's a mistake !" please take note that these are calculated predictions of scheduled matches. So no, they don't constitute my personal opinion about the matches. Just mathematics doing the job :)

  1. Hi Ed, For November 2022 and specifically a week before a world cup, there are many friendly matches scheduled. Are these international matches considered with weight 10 or weight 5 only??

    ReplyDelete
  2. Tarek, there is no official FIFA International Match Window in November, so these friendlies will carry an I-factor of only 5.

    ReplyDelete
  3. Egypt are playing 2 friendly games but not in the list

    ReplyDelete
  4. Well, this was the known list of matches on September 5th. Egypt's friendlies were scheduled afterwards. You do realise I can't look into the future? :)

    ReplyDelete
  5. Hi Ed, Do you have any idea about the mechanism of POTS distribution for the AFC asia cup 2023? To be more specific, will they consider the FIFA ranking for distributing teams into four Pots, OR just to distribute teams into Pots 3&4, while Pot 1&2 to be dedicated for the teams who qualifies to 3rd round of fifa wc 2022 qualification??

    ReplyDelete
  6. Hi Tarek, AFC hasn't confirmed this yet (we don't even have a host assigned yet for that tournament) so I know nothing more than the manner the pot distribution was determined for the last AFC Cup in 2019. Then it was the latter: pots 1&2 contain the 3rd round WC-qualification qualifiers and pots 3&4 contain the remaining teams.

    ReplyDelete
  7. Hi Ed, will you do a simulation for the Euro 2024 qualification games once the draw is made next week.

    Can you also then do a simulation for the playoffs for the last 3 spots at the finals.

    As a Rep of Ireland fan i think we will probably finish 3rd or 4th in our group and so will be relying on a playoff opportunity. Thanks!

    ReplyDelete
  8. Yes, before the qualifications start I will run the first simulations, including the play-offs. Upcoming first in October are the simulations for the World Cup :)

    ReplyDelete
  9. Hi Ed! Jordan played against Syria on 23-9, and Oman on 26-9, Iraq played against Oman on 23-9 and Syria on 26-9. This is to correct the list and modify the expected results if needed.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Thanks for the feedback. These matches are included in my final preview.
