Buckeye, sorry I didn't get back to you. Work has been crazy but something still seems wrong.
Just take everything on face value in your example.
Phi scores 3.5 goals per game on the road
CHI gives up 2 goals per game
The average you have is 2.9 goals /game.
Yet you are predicting 5.2 goals for PHI
I believe the PHI 1.18 ratio and CHI 0.64 ratio is correct. But I think you need to multiply all 3 together.
1.18*0.64*2.9 = 2.2 goals expect for PHI. So the fact that Chicago is so much better vs average bring down their expected goals.
If CHI gave up 3.0 goals per game you would have 3.5/2.9 * 3.0/2.9 * 2.9 = 3.6. PHI offense scores more than average and CHI gives up more than average, so PHI could take advantage of the poor defense and do better than they normally do.

After listening/agreeing with what MPG posted, I have adjusted GSGA to his formula. GSGA2 was that formula but using Medians. I'm going to continue to post both, with GSGA using averages....see if it makes a difference in the long run.

I'm also going to reset the Win/Loss for each too.... that's posted on the other thread

Covers has not updated last night's games so these numbers aren't exact though they should be close...I don't think 3 games out of all that has been played so far this season will matter. None of these teams played yesterday.
