You have two teams playing each other.
Team A has a win % of 62%
Team B has a win % of 48%
How do you figure out the % of how wins Team A should have?
If it's 62 and 38 it would be easy and of course they should win 62% of the time but what if it equals something other than 100%?
Typically you would just add up the two winning percentages and then divide the winning percentages by the total. In this example Team A should win 56% of the time over Team B but I don't think that's right. Surely a team with a 62% win percentage should beat a sub-500 team more than 56% right or am I off?
