FN xPts — what each moment was worth

How much each moment changed that team's expected points (win 3, draw 1). A goal's value is credited 70% to the scorer and 30% to the assist.

53' Hee-Chan Hwang Goal · scorer +0.8 · assist Pedro Neto +0.3 +1.1
55' Pau Torres Goal · scorer +0.6 · assist Ollie Watkins +0.3 +0.9
90+4' Mario Lemina Red card −0.1
Wolves Expected (last two seasons) 1.3Own moments +1.0Opponent moments −1.1Time effect −0.2→ League points won 1
Aston Villa Expected (last two seasons) 1.4Own moments +0.9Opponent moments −0.8Time effect −0.5→ League points won 1

Expected points don't add up to a fixed total (a draw is 1 + 1), so an opponent's moment isn't simply the mirror of your loss. "Time effect" is the change as the clock runs down on a lead or a chase, and isn't credited to any player.
