4.64 vs 12 actual pts

Early-season figures: after 4 matches, per-match rates can move quickly.

Expected goals here are summed over 4 of 8 matches — the rest were played with no xG figure published for them, so the margins compare two different lengths of season.

What the xG says

FC Košice's underlying numbers are among the weakest in Niké Liga (Slovakia). They rank #11 for xG difference at -0.79 per match, built on elite chance quality rather than low shot volume. After only 4 matches, treat every figure here as provisional.
