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' Gonçalo Guedes Goal · scorer +0.7 · assist Sergio Gómez +0.3 +1.0

Athletic Club Expected (last two seasons) 1.8Own moments +1.1Opponent moments −0.8Time effect −1.1→ League points won 1
Real Sociedad Expected (last two seasons) 0.9Own moments +0.9Opponent moments −1.8Time effect +1.0→ 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.
