About expected goals (xG V1)

xG estimates a shot's goal probability. Team xG sums scored unblocked, non-empty-net attempts, including overtime and excluding shootouts. It describes chances already taken, not a pregame goal forecast. Bars compare team totals within this game. Missing coverage is not zero xG. Historical scores generated with this model are retrospective, not independent model-performance results. Older games may use direction inferred from period-wide shot locations.
