Where these numbers come from
Game Score is computed over one unified club Elo across league, UEFA and major domestic cup matches, and emitted to the site's data files at build time. Scores are calibrated per sport, so a 3.6 in baseball is not a 3.6 in basketball. A cross-sport scale is a future build, not a claim this page makes.
