Power-ranking history
Against expectation
Every French top-flight match this club has played in the Ligue 1, scored against the odds an Elo rating gave it before kick-off. Over 12 seasons from 1946-47 to 1965-66 it has beaten them by +0.8 match points.
Season points use that season’s own scoring, two for a win before 1994-95 and three from it; the bars use match points so the whole series is comparable. Played as Stade Francais, then Stade Francais FC.The rating only starts telling you much after about 1960. Before that, knowing the era’s home-and-away split is almost as good as knowing the teams.
1946-47 table not final: source 4 matchdays short (20 clubs at 34 of 38) and one round mis-dated.
