FA Cup xG Table 2025/2026

How these xG numbers are calculated

Expected goals measure the quality of the chances a team creates and concedes, with every shot scored between 0 and 1 by how often shots like it are converted. Expected goal difference is the gap between the two, so a side above its actual goal difference has created more than it has taken. Figures count ties in this competition only. Underlying data is supplied by Sportmonks.
