About these figures What each column measures, and the thresholds this ranking is under. Show Hide
- P
- — Matches played
- GA
- — Goals conceded
- xGA
- — Expected goals against: the summed chance quality of the shots a team allowed
- xGA/match
- — Expected goals against per match with xG data
- GA − xGA
- — Goals conceded minus xGA, over the matches with xG. Negative means fewer conceded than the chances allowed.
- Shots ag.

- npxGA/shot
- — Average non-penalty expected goals per shot allowed
A club is ranked once it has 3 matches with xG and at least 75% of what the median club has played. Below that its row stays in the table, its rates are dashed and it sorts last.
