About these figures What each column measures, and the thresholds this ranking is under. Show Hide
- P
- — Matches played
- GF
- — Goals scored
- xG
- — Expected goals: the summed chance quality of the shots a team took
- xG/match
- — Expected goals per match with xG data
- G − xG
- — Goals scored minus xG, over the matches with xG. Always all xG, because goals include penalties.
- Shots
- — Shots taken in the matches with shot data
- npxG/shot
- — Average non-penalty expected goals per shot taken
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.
