What the numbers mean

Reviewed with every data refresh

Are Al Shabab better or worse than their results?

Covered sample: 7 scored from 6.2 xG, 14 conceded from 10.2 xGA over 5 matches.

Expected goals measure the quality of chances created and faced, so a persistent gap between goals and xG marks finishing runs or goalkeeping variance rather than underlying strength. Coverage is stated because partial samples must never masquerade as a full season.
