What the numbers say

Points. 1 point from 3.3 xPTS (−2.3). By quality of play (xPTS) it ranks 16th in the league, but 19th in the table. Source of the shortfall: missed chances (−2.0 goals vs xG) and extra goals conceded (+1.0 vs xGA).

Attack. 1.00 xG per match — 18th of 20 (league average 1.72): the attack creates less than most rivals. Only 2 goals scored from 4.0 xG (−2.0): the chances are there, the finishing is not. If the chance quality holds, the goals will come.

Defence. 1.75 xGA per match — 13th of 20 for solidity (league average 1.72). Conceded 8 goals from 7.0 xGA — exactly in line with the chances allowed.

Upside potential: HIGH. Performance is better than results by 0.56 points per match: expected pace 0.8 points per match vs the current 0.3.

4 matches played. Over this distance the metrics already show a trend, but randomness is still large — treat this as an early signal, not a verdict.

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.
