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.

37' Jean-Philippe Mateta Goal +0.8
49' Jarrod Bowen Goal · scorer +0.6 · assist El Hadji Malick Diouf +0.2 +0.8

West Ham Expected (last two seasons) 1.2Own moments +0.8Opponent moments −1.6Time effect −0.4→ League points won 0
Crystal Palace Expected (last two seasons) 1.6Own moments +2.0Opponent moments −0.9Time effect +0.3→ 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.
