Statistics NAC Breda vs AZ Alkmaar

1.96 Expected goals (xG) stat-tooltip-icon Expected goals xG - measures the quality of a scoring chance and the probability of it becoming a goal.

It evaluates the quality of the pass based on factors like its placement, trajectory, speed, the receiver's position, defensive pressure, and the overall attacking context. Each key pass receives a value between 0 and 1; a player's or team's total xA is the sum of these values. Higher xA indicates better chance creation, even if the subsequent shot is missed or saved. 2.2

1.56 xGOT faced stat-tooltip-icon xGOT faced - total number of goals a goalkeeper would be expected to concede based on the volume and quality of on-target shots faced. Each shot's quality is assessed using post-shot factors: placement, goalkeeper positioning, shot speed, etc. xGOT Faced for a team equals the opposing team's total xGOT from shots on target. It serves as the benchmark for calculating Goals Prevented. 1.68
0.56 Goals prevented stat-tooltip-icon Goals prevented - measures how many goals a goalkeeper saved compared to expectation. It is calculated as the difference between xGOT Faced (the total post-shot expected goals of all on-target shots faced) and the actual number of goals conceded (excluding own goals). A higher positive value indicates the goalkeeper performed above average, preventing more goals than expected from the quality of shots faced. A negative value means more goals were conceded than the shots "deserved. 1.68
