Expected Goals Table

( Coventry have 2 games in hand, Wigan and Rotherham 1 game each)


Swansea is still leading the expected goals table. Norwich, WBA and Sheffield United in the top four.
Wigan, Reading, Blackburn and Luton are poor when it comes to creating high quality chances.




It's incredible that Swansea, Norwich, WBA and Burnley have scored only 14 goals from approx. 40 expected goals.




The same teams (together with Preston) top the xPoints Table





And this is the real table.
Blackburn, Watford and Hull are massively overperforming, whilst
Burnley, Swansea, Norwich and WBA are underperforming.




Burnley, WBA and Norwich's attackers underperform, whilst in Swansea's case it's both attackers and defenders

[CroJack]

We are in the top six when it comes to number of shots



We are improving when it comes to shots against



We are second best when it comes to shots on target.
Our attackers hit the target often but the shots are either too weak or the opposition
goalkeepers make some extraordinary saves.



We are in the bottom half when it comes to shots on target against.
We simply allow too many shots on target.
Though we are also improving here, allowed Millwall only 1 shot on target.
