11.05 vs 13 actual pts

Early-season figures: after 5 matches, per-match rates can move quickly.

What the xG says

Inter's underlying numbers are league-leading. They rank #1 for xG difference at +1.55 per match, driven by both elite shot volume and elite chance quality. Their 15 goals are 0.51 above 14.49 xG, while 13 points are 1.95 above 11.05 xPts. After only 5 matches, those gaps should still be read cautiously.
