What the numbers mean

Reviewed with every data refresh

Are Motherwell better or worse than their results?

Covered sample: 2 scored from 1.5 xG, 1 conceded from 2.2 xGA over 1 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.
