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.

44' Jarrod Bowen Goal · scorer +0.5 · assist Aaron Wan-Bissaka +0.2 +0.7
73' Myles Lewis-Skelly Red card −0.3
Arsenal Expected (last two seasons) 2.5Own moments −0.3Opponent moments −0.8Time effect −1.4→ League points won 0
West Ham Expected (last two seasons) 0.4Own moments +0.7Opponent moments +0.4Time effect +1.5→ 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.
