Goals versus expected, 2026
What the numbers mean
Are Start better or worse than their results?
Covered sample: 12 scored from 14.6 xG, 28 conceded from 21.0 xGA over 11 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.
