Lost 0–4 at home to SC Heerenveen · Sep 19

That's how they've played so far. Where the model has Sparta Rotterdam finishing in May, and the odds on going down, come with a free account.

What the numbers say

Season to date, measured against the rest of the division.

Attack

Creating like a side further up the table

4th in the division for big chances created more than 8 of the 11 sides above them.

23

big chances

Attack

Wasteful, not toothless

Scoring about 18% below what their shot volume supports. Finishing that far below the run rate usually corrects.

0.82

goals per expected

Defence

Leaking goals

17 conceded in 7, 2.43 a game. No attack fixes that on its own.

17

Defence

They win the ball back

3rd in the division for tackles. A side doing that much defending is either pressing well or living without the ball.
