5. What do “Expected Goals (xG)” and “Expected Assists (x) mean in the dataset?
Expected Goals (xG) is a statistical measure used to assess the quality of scoring opportunities. It assigns a probability to each goal-scoring chance, indicating how likely it is that the chance would be scored. A high xG value suggests a high likelihood of scoring. This metric helps understand how many goals a team or player should have scored on average, given the quality and quantity of the shots taken.
Expected Assists (xA) measures the likelihood that a given pass will become an assist. It considers factors such as the type of pass, the location from where it was made, and the subsequent actions of the receiver. xA provides insight into a player’s playmaking abilities, indicating their effectiveness in creating goal-scoring opportunities for teammates.
