Fixture difficulty

The next three opponents by the club's own chances. A tough run.

What the numbers say

Points. 8 points from 9.6 xPTS (−1.6). By quality of play (xPTS) it ranks 18th in the league, but 16th in the table. Points match the quality of play. Inside that balance finishing falls short (−4.1 vs xG), but fewer goals conceded than expected (−1.6 vs xGA) — one cancels the other.

Attack. 1.31 xG per match — 13th of 18 (league average 1.59): the attack creates less than most rivals. Scored 9 goals from 13.1 xG — 31% fewer than expected. Finishing is clearly below par — the chances are the same, so the goals will probably follow.

Defence. 2.06 xGA per match — 16th of 18 for solidity (league average 1.59): allows plenty of chances near its own goal. Conceded 19 goals from 20.6 xGA — 8% fewer than expected. The gap is small, still within the usual spread.

Playing to its level. Points (8) are close to the quality of play (9.6 xPTS).

Round by round

The solid line is points won, the dashed line is expected points (xPTS). The gap shows how far results run ahead of performance, or behind it.

Fixtures and forecast

Outcome chances and expected points come from the opponent's attack and defence with a home advantage adjustment: a fixture is worth 3 points for a win and 1 for a draw.
