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.
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.
Shot figures are available for competitions with shot data. This one carries none, so the shot columns are not drawn.
