What the numbers mean

Reviewed with every data refresh

Are Viking better or worse than their results?

Covered sample: 23 scored from 18.3 xG, 9 conceded from 12.4 xGA over 10 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.
