Liga Profesional de Fútbol xG Table 2026

Who the Liga Profesional de Fútbol xG table says is due a correction

Estudiantes de Río Cuarto have the biggest shortfall in the Liga Profesional de Fútbol: 11 points from chances worth 26.7 xPts, a gap of 15.7. At the other end, Vélez Sarsfield have taken 49 points from an xPts figure of 37.7, 11.3 more than the underlying numbers justify.

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 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.
