  1. Netherlands-Belgium 1.
    May I predict that the elo-prediction for this match is a rather optimistic one ?

    1. I will look into adding a special factor for Holland's matches :)

      NED's win expectancy is a bit over 0.62, while the border for draw/win is around 0.6183.

    2. Well, it turned out (as I expected) that even the draw was hardly deserved for the Netherlands. Belgium was technically much better, although not really effective in the box.

  2. Why Libya in 73 rank while it lost 4.0 with congo

    1. Not quite sure what I should answer. Margin of victory is not included in the calculation.

  3. Hi Ed,

    What will be the possible effect of this to the rankings of ASEAN nations?

    1. What are they talking about? AFF Cup has always been included in the calculation of the FIFA ranking. I don't think they have been able to persuade FIFA to upgrade the multiplier (the matches are still friendlies).

    2. So there's no difference between a category-A tournament and a friendly tournament? Thanks btw.

    3. For the calculation of the ranking the type of match is important, in a categorization from highest value to lowest value: World Cup (4), Continental final and Confed Cup (3), continental qualifier (2.5) and friendly (1). The matches in the AFF Cup have always been categorized as friendlies for the FIFA ranking.
      For the calculation there is no category 'A-tournament', the terminology is unknown in the recipe of the ranking calculation.

  4. This is all extremely fascinating, but where are November updates of Nations League?
