Columbus Crew generated 17.4 expected goals across 14 covered matches in the 2026 season, converting these chances into 14 actual goals. Their attack delta of 3.6 suggests moderate efficiency in finishing opportunities relative to their underlying shot quality.
Defensively, the side conceded 16.2 expected goals over 25 covered matches, though they shipped 25 actual goals. A defence delta of 8.8 indicates they were significantly more vulnerable to opposition chances than their underlying metrics suggested.
Covered sample: 21 scored from 17.4 xG, 25 conceded from 16.2 xGA over 14 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.
A relative strength index across the covered club cohort, not a percentage or a price.
