17.41 vs 17 actual pts

Early-season figures: after 7 matches, per-match rates can move quickly.

What the xG says

Feyenoord's underlying numbers are league-leading. They rank #1 for xG difference at +1.96 per match, driven by elite shot volume at about average chance quality. Their 25 goals are 5.68 above 19.32 xG, while 17 points are 0.41 below 17.41 xPts. After only 7 matches, those gaps should still be read cautiously.
