Fixture difficulty

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

What the numbers say

Points. 16 points from 18.6 xPTS (−2.6). By quality of play (xPTS) it ranks 9th in the league, but 11th in the table. Source of the shortfall: extra goals conceded (+6.1 vs xGA).

Attack. 1.26 xG per match — 9th of 16 (league average 1.24): an average attack for this league. Scored 17 goals from 17.6 xG — finishing is on par. What they create is what they score.

Defence. 1.42 xGA per match — 13th of 16 for solidity (league average 1.24): allows plenty of chances near its own goal. Conceded 26 goals from 19.9 xGA — 31% more than expected. Opponents are finishing better than the quality of their chances allows.

Upside potential: HIGH. Performance is better than results by 0.18 points per match: expected pace 1.3 points per match vs the current 1.1.

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.
