What the numbers say

Points. 4 points from 5.0 xPTS (−1.0). By quality of play (xPTS) it ranks 18th in the league, but 19th in the table. Points match the quality of play.

Attack. 0.69 xG per match — 20th of 20 (league average 1.64): the attack creates less than most rivals. Only 2 goals scored from 4.2 xG (−2.2): the chances are there, the finishing is not. If the chance quality holds, the goals will come.

Defence. 1.72 xGA per match — 11th of 20 for solidity (league average 1.64). Conceded 10 goals from 10.3 xGA — exactly in line with the chances allowed.

Playing to its level. Points (4) are close to the quality of play (5.0 xPTS).

6 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.
