What the xG says

Lech Poznań's underlying numbers are league-leading. They rank #1 for xG difference at +1.18 per match, driven by both elite shot volume and the league's best chance quality. Their 17 goals are 0.41 above 16.59 xG, while 19 points are 2.45 above 16.55 xPts. After only 8 matches, those gaps should still be read cautiously.
