How the numbers for FC Midtjylland v FC Copenhagen are calculated
Every figure on this page comes from the steps below – nothing is adjusted by hand.
Expected goals (λ)
Ratings fitted to league results (22 and 24 matches). 1.00 = average attack or defence.
| League avg goals | Attack | Opp. defence | λ (ratings) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| FC Midtjylland (home) | 1.68 | 1.25 | 0.66 | 1.39 |
| FC Copenhagen (away) | 1.42 | 1.26 | 0.86 | 1.55 |
λhome = μhome × Atthome × Defaway = 1.68 × 1.25 × 0.66 ≈ 1.39
