OUT-SHOOTING OPPONENTS

Manchester City are taking 9.3 shots a match and allowing 5.5, against a league median of 7.4 and 7.2. Shot volume predicts the next match better than goals do, because goals are shots multiplied by finishing variance and finishing variance does not persist. A side controlling shots without the results to match is the version of good form the table hides.
