How the numbers for Tondela v Farense 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 (10 and 17 matches). 1.00 = average attack or defence.

| Farense (away) | 1.21 | 1.11 | 0.93 | 1.26 |
λhome = μhome × Atthome × Defaway = 1.33 × 1.04 × 1.06 ≈ 1.47
