By being on the same team as Amumu, she improves their win rate by 0.3% to 49.3%. This proves that there is not really a strong bond between Amumu and Irelia that results in them performing better together than alone.

Irelia has a greater difficulty than Amumu. That means you must be careful when enlisting Irelia teammates to fight alongside, as they will have to have a greater level of skill to do well with you.
