Where the model differs from the table

The table and the model disagree here: the standings favour Toluca (fourth, with CF Pachuca eighth), while our numbers lean to CF Pachuca. CF Pachuca rate 0.85 in attack and 1.08 in defence, Toluca 0.97 and 1.15 (lower is better in defence), so CF Pachuca have been the better side in defence on recent expected goals, which the 5-point gap in the table does not yet show. Playing at home adds the rest.
