Where the model differs from the table

GO Ahead Eagles rate 0.81 in attack and 1.31 in defence, Fortuna Sittard 0.76 and 1.11 (lower is better in defence), so GO Ahead Eagles have been the better side in attack on recent expected goals, which the 3-point gap in the table does not yet show. Playing at home adds the rest.
