Espanyol 1-2 Real Madrid: winning on 0.26 xG
Real Madrid took three points at Cornella with 65% of the ball and 0.26 xG - less than the side that lost. A breakdown of why the scoreline and the performance disagree.
Espanyol Rout Levante 3:0 on a First-Half Fernandez Brace
Roberto Fernandez scored twice inside the first forty minutes, and by halftime Levante hadn't put a single shot on target against Espanyol's keeper — across the full ninety minutes, the visitors never forced the home goalkeeper into a single save. The 3:0 rout, backed by an xG of 1.55 to 0.28, reads as an entirely predictable result rather than a statistical outlier: the team sitting first in the table hosted a club in the relegation zone, and the match played out exactly the way that fixture suggests it should.
