Fixture difficulty

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

What the numbers say

Points. 14 points from 13.9 xPTS (+0.1). By quality of play (xPTS) it ranks 10th in the league, but 9th in the table. Points match the quality of play. Inside that balance fewer goals conceded than expected (−5.2 vs xGA), but finishing falls short (−3.9 vs xG) — one cancels the other.

Attack. 1.39 xG per match — 16th of 20 (league average 1.60): the attack creates less than most rivals. Scored 10 goals from 13.9 xG — 28% fewer than expected. Finishing is clearly below par — the chances are the same, so the goals will probably follow.

Defence. 1.32 xGA per match — 5th of 20 for solidity (league average 1.60): allows few chances near its own goal. Conceded 8 goals from 13.2 xGA — 39% fewer than expected. Part of these clean sheets rests on luck rather than defending.

Playing to its level. Points (14) are close to the quality of play (13.9 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.
