Generation

Expected Goals (xG) is a statistical metric that measures the quality of scoring chances by calculating the probability that a shot will result in a goal based on factors like distance, angle, and assist type. It provides a more accurate assessment of team and player performance than raw goal totals alone, helping to identify whether results reflect actual play quality or luck. xG is widely used by analysts, coaches, and teams to evaluate attacking efficiency and predict future performance.
