away to Aston Villa

Mon 31 Aug, 19:00 UTC

Aston Villa concede 12.1 shots a match and are 0.86× the league norm against forwards. A difficult one.

Season rate multiplied by what this opponent concedes relative to the league. It assumes a full ninety minutes and takes no account of rotation, so check availability before reading anything into it.

What they are for

Roles

penalties, set pieces, crossing, partnerships
  • When it mattered3 of 4 goals came with the game level or Arsenal behind.

Partnerships

  • Feeds Leandro Trossard6 shots, 1.78 xG
  • Fed by Ben White6 shots, 1.40 xG
  • Fed by Bukayo Saka9 shots, 1.19 xG
  • Fed by Martin Odegaard9 shots, 0.75 xG

A share of the attack says how much runs through Gabriel Jesus. These say what would have to be replaced. Losing the penalty taker or the corner deliverer is not the same as losing a proportional slice of output, and a partnership cuts both ways: the supplier being absent damages the finisher’s numbers too.

Season record

Involvement in build-up

excludes their own shots and final passes

Gabriel Jesus carries 3.2% of Arsenal’s build-up value.

  • Build-up per 900.313
    74% of forwards
  • Possession value per 900.906
    83% of forwards

Ranked against 107 forwards with a comparable sample. Build-up is the value of possessions a player was involved in with their own shots and final passes removed, so it credits the work before the chance. It is a possession-value measure rather than a passing one: it cannot tell a forty-yard carry from two sideways balls, because no pass or carry record exists in this data.
