Footy Simulator xG Model
Drag the ball around the pitch to see its xG value.
Presenting to you, the Footy Simulator xG Model!
"Expected goals (or xG) measures the quality of a chance by calculating the likelihood that it will be scored by using information on similar shots in the past. We use nearly one million shots from Opta’s historical database to measure xG on a scale between zero and one, where zero represents a chance that is impossible to score, and one represents a chance that a player would be expected to score every single time" (Opta).
Move the ball around the pitch to get the xG value at the given position.
