Lost 2–3 at home to Real Sociedad · Sep 20

What the numbers say

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

Attack

The chances are not being made

18th of 20 for big chances created, and it shows in the goals. The problem is making them, not taking them.

4

Attack

Wasteful, not toothless

Scoring about 11% below what their shot volume supports. Finishing that far below the run rate usually corrects.
