SOCCERteam profile shot dominance

OUT-SHOOTING OPPONENTS

Barcelona are taking 8.9 shots a match and allowing 5, against a league median of 7 and 6.8. 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.
