How it works
Expectation Before every match the rating difference gives each side an expected result. 400 points more means a 10:1 favourite; the team playing in its own country gets 100 points extra.
Surprise After the match, points move from the loser to the winner: the more surprising the result, the more points. A draw after a penalty shootout counts as a draw.
Weight World Cup matches count three times as much as friendlies, continental finals 2.5 times, qualifiers twice. Wins by two goals or more count extra. Successor states such as Russia continue with the rating of their predecessor.
