Fixture difficulty

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

What the numbers say

Points. 11 points from 9.0 xPTS (+2.0). By quality of play (xPTS) it ranks 20th in the league, but 13th in the table. Source of the surplus: conceding less than expected (−5.7 vs xGA).

Attack. 1.03 xG per match — 20th of 20 (league average 1.60): creates less in front of goal than anyone in the league. Scored 11 goals from 10.3 xG — finishing is on par. What they create is what they score.

Defence. 1.67 xGA per match — 13th of 20 for solidity (league average 1.60): mid-table for chances allowed. Conceded 11 goals from 16.7 xGA — 34% fewer than expected. Part of these clean sheets rests on luck rather than defending.

Regression risk: HIGH. Points are ahead of performance by 0.20 per match: expected pace 0.9 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.

Fixtures and forecast

Current pace is 1.10 points per match, the pace expected from the next opponents is 0.85. Over the next 5 rounds the model gives 4.2 points. 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.
