    Lol… Not really… Chelsea had a 1.8xG vs 1.5xG for Arsenal… 0.9 of Chelsea’s XG was the penalty… They looked like they dominated but created jackshit… It was more of our own slow start than Chelsea being any good tbh…

      Chelsea only has 1.8G because they squandered great attacking opportunities and because they were in the lead and didn’t need to force the action.

      Also, Arsenal’s sloe start was because of Chelsea’s fast start. They were correlated

        You do realize that great attacking opportunities translate to an XG right ? If they couldn’t complete the attacking sequence coz of a bad pass or good defending, then it isn’t an opportunity at all…

          There’s a difference between creating attacking opportunities and creating chances. Opportunities just mean that you were in a good position to make something happen, but you let the opportunity pass by. Creating chances tho is you going one step further and taking the opportunity(not necessarily scoring, tho)
