How to read the numbers
Projected xG uses opponent-adjusted club ratings from 2026/27, with 2025/26 carried in and weighted down as clubs play. Promoted clubs have nothing to carry and use a blended estimate until they have a record of their own. Actual results are labelled full time.
Player estimates use 2026/27 non-penalty goals plus assists, adjusted for playing time, sample size and on-ball involvement. The opponent provides context; it does not set the ranking. Players qualify above 0.38 expected involvement, with at least 75 season minutes and up to four names per club. These are estimates, not guaranteed returns.
