LaLiga top scorers
Goal charts are everywhere. Here every name carries its xG — how many a player should have scored from the chances he got. The gap is what his season is really worth.
Raphinha has pulled clear on 15 goals; the nearest chaser is Kylian Mbappe-Lottin on 12. Raphinha: those chances were worth only 11.33, an overshoot of 3.67. Finishing like that rarely lasts a season, and a dip is likelier than more of the same. Across the league 32 players out of 80 are scoring above their xG.
Top scorers
The gap is goals minus xG: a plus means finishing above expectation, a minus below it.
