How is the SOT matchup read calculated?

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

Wigan take 12.8 shots per game and put 3.5 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.

How is conversion (Goals/SOT) useful?

Wigan are currently converting 17% 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.
