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.

4' Jhon Arias Goal · scorer +0.5 · assist Hee-Chan Hwang +0.2 +0.7
31' Hee-Chan Hwang Pen goal +0.6
41' Mateus Mané Goal · assist Hugo Bueno +0.2
Wolves Expected (last two seasons) 1.3Own moments +1.5Opponent moments 0.0Time effect +0.2→ League points won 3
West Ham Expected (last two seasons) 1.5Own moments 0.0Opponent moments −1.3Time effect −0.2→ League points won 0

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.
