10.33 vs 14 actual pts

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

Expected goals here are summed over 7 of 8 matches — the rest were played with no xG figure published for them, so the margins compare two different lengths of season.

What the xG says

Újpest's underlying numbers sit close to the NB I (Hungary) average. They rank #7 for xG difference at +0.15 per match, built on high chance quality rather than about average shot volume. Their 16 goals are 0.39 above 15.61 xG, while 14 points are 3.67 above 10.33 xPts — both over the 7 matches with xG. After only 7 matches, those gaps should still be read cautiously.
