How is the SOT matchup read calculated?

SOT matchup blends our attackers' on-target rate (50%) with the opposition's SOT conceded per game (50%). For the upcoming fixture against South Africa, the page weights each Kenya attacker against the opposition's last-season SOT-conceded rate.

What's the difference between shots and shots on target?

Kenya take 8.2 shots per game and put 2.5 on target. Players who shoot speculatively often have a low SOT-per-shot ratio; the context panel surfaces the shots/g funnel so you can see the conversion rate.

Where do these SOT stats come from?

All numbers come from match-level Sportmonks data ingested into Statz - 10 Kenya fixtures in the active window for 2026. Player odds come from Bet365 player markets when priced.

How is conversion (Goals/SOT) useful?

Kenya are currently converting 40% of their shots on target into goals. A high conversion rate means finishing well; a low one means SOT volume but not yet goals. Pair this with the shots/g funnel to read how the goals number is built.
