Strength and dominance

Team strength and finishing efficiency

Recent results need context. These measures account for opponent quality and the balance of play.

Measure	Blackpool	Leicester	How to read it

Change over the last 10	-1	12	Rating gained or lost over the last ten matches
Opposition strength	1490	1519	Average opponent rating over the last 20 matches. Above 1500 indicates a tougher schedule.
Shot share	44.6%	56.7%	Share of all shots in a match. Above 50% means the team takes more shots than its opponents.
Shots on target share	46.8%	53.7%	The same measure, counting only shots on target
Finishing and saving index (PDO)	1111	813	Shooting conversion plus save percentage, on a scale centred on 1000. Extreme values can reflect short-term variation.
