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.

14' Cole Palmer Goal · scorer +0.5 · assist Jadon Sancho +0.2 +0.7
82' Jean-Philippe Mateta Goal · scorer +0.7 · assist Eberechi Eze +0.3 +1.0
Crystal Palace Expected (last two seasons) 1.4Own moments +1.0Opponent moments −0.7Time effect −0.7→ League points won 1
Chelsea Expected (last two seasons) 1.4Own moments +0.7Opponent moments −1.5Time effect +0.4→ 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.
