How the numbers for AS Roma v Atalanta are calculated
Every figure on this page comes from the steps below – nothing is adjusted by hand.
Expected goals (λ)

| League avg goals | Attack | Opp. defence | λ (ratings) | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| AS Roma (home) | 1.55 | 1.61 | 1.13 | 2.84 |
| Atalanta (away) | 1.43 | 1.01 | 0.77 | 1.11 |
λhome = μhome × Atthome × Defaway = 1.55 × 1.61 × 1.13 ≈ 2.84
