What the numbers mean

Reviewed with every data refresh

Are Lorient better or worse than their results?

Covered sample: 7 scored from 8.4 xG, 6 conceded from 8.1 xGA over 8 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.
