Lyngby Boldklub have the biggest shortfall in the Superliga: 8 points from chances worth 16.2 xPts, a gap of 8.2. At the other end, FC Midtjylland have taken 22 points from an xPts figure of 14.5, 7.5 more than the underlying numbers justify.
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 points come from running each finished match through a Poisson model using both sides' xG, giving a win, draw and loss probability, then awarding three points and one point against those probabilities. Underlying data is supplied by Sportmonks. How xG is calculated How xPts is calculated
