Shots against
Are we conceding too many shots — or too many good ones?
What opponents get against us: pick an opponent to see the shots they took, the chance quality (xGA per shot), and how they scored.
What this tells us
The problem is volume more than chance quality
1.56 xGA a game from 14.4 shots faced — 0.11 xGA per shot (around or below the ~0.10 a typical shot is worth). Conceding 55 from that xGA says goalkeeping has bailed out the chances given up. Use the situation slicer to see whether set pieces are carrying the damage. League context: the average side conceded 1.39 xGA/game — we rank 8th of 12 for prevention (1.51).
