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.

29' Vitaly Janelt Own goal −0.7
87' Pape Matar Sarr Goal · assist Heung-min Son +0.2
Brentford Expected (last two seasons) 1.4Own moments −0.7Opponent moments −0.1Time effect −0.6→ League points won 0
Tottenham Expected (last two seasons) 1.4Own moments +0.2Opponent moments +0.7Time effect +0.7→ League points won 3

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.
