Astounding Stat… PSG Should Have Scored Over Four Goals Against Newcastle

In the match against Newcastle tonight, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) displayed a staggering statistic painfully illustrating its lack of efficiency in front of the opponent’s goal.

Thirty chances, and in the end, only a meager penalty. PSG missed out on its return match against Newcastle. However, the stats were in PSG’s favor.

Despite creating an « expected goals » (xG) of 4.47, the Parisians managed to score only one goal, resulting in a negative differential of 3.47 goals. This statistic, which measures the probability of a shot resulting in a goal based on various factors, reveals a glaring inefficiency of the Parisian team in this encounter.

This deficit of 3.47 goals represents the largest disparity between expectations (xG) and actual results in a Champions League match since this data has been analyzed by Opta in the competition, starting in 2013/14.
