FA Cup xG Table 2025/2026

Which sides have scored more than their chances deserved, and which have conceded more than they should.

Updated 16 May 2026, after the last game

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. How xG is calculated
