These ratings are based on all reported FIFA "A" matches, combined with historical information in the form of a `prior distribution'. If you linked to this page directly, without reading the explanation of the rating system, you may want to go back and read my International ratings pages, or my general discussion of ratings.
The data are from Ron Kessler's RSSSF archive of 'A' Internationals. Thanks Ron!
The column labeled SE (standard error) is an estimate of the uncertainty in the ratings. Rating differences much smaller than the SE's are insignificant. For example, the ratings for the US and China are essentially equal. The column labeled Opp is the average rating of each team's opponents during the rating period.
The home field advantage is about 60 rating points.
Note: matches such as the WWC final decided by PK's are counted as ties for rating purposes
