11.01 vs 17 actual pts

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

Expected goals here are summed over 7 of 10 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

Arda Kardzhali's underlying numbers sit close to the Parva Liga (Bulgaria) average. They rank #6 for xG difference at +0.29 per match, driven by high shot volume at about average chance quality. Their 10 goals are 0.82 below 10.82 xG, while 11 points are 0.01 below 11.01 xPts — both over the 7 matches with xG. After only 7 matches, those gaps should still be read cautiously.
