Fixture difficulty

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

What the numbers say

Points. 16 points from 11.7 xPTS (+4.3). By quality of play (xPTS) it ranks 11th in the league, but 7th in the table. Source of the surplus: finishing (+2.0 goals above xG) and conceding less than expected (−3.3 vs xGA).

Attack. 1.10 xG per match — 18th of 18 (league average 1.59): creates less in front of goal than anyone in the league. Scored 13 goals from 11.0 xG — 18% more than expected. A small finishing bonus, still within the usual spread.

Defence. 1.43 xGA per match — 8th of 18 for solidity (league average 1.59): mid-table for chances allowed. Conceded 11 goals from 14.3 xGA — 23% fewer than expected. Part of these clean sheets rests on luck rather than defending.

Regression risk: HIGH. Points are ahead of performance by 0.43 per match: expected pace 1.2 points per match vs the current 1.6.

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.

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.
