Almere City are the biggest overperformers in Eerste Divisie, scoring 66 goals from an xG of just 51.7 — a difference of +14.3. This could indicate clinical finishing or luck that may not be sustainable over the full season.

Understanding the xG metrics
xG (Expected Goals): The total expected goals a team should have scored based on the quality of their chances.
xGA (Expected Goals Against): How many goals a team should have conceded — lower is better.
xPTS (Expected Points): How many league points a team deserves based on xG performance.
npxG (Non-Penalty xG): xG excluding penalties, giving a truer picture of open-play chance creation.
xGoT (xG on Target): Expected goals from shots that were on target only.
+/- (Overperformance): The difference between actual goals and xG. Positive = overperforming, negative = underperforming.
