Where the model differs from the table
The table and the model disagree here: the standings favour Jong AZ (12th, with Jong Ajax 14th), while our numbers lean to Jong Ajax. Jong Ajax rate 0.57 in attack and 1.99 in defence, Jong AZ 0.69 and 2.16 (lower is better in defence), so Jong Ajax have been the better side in defence on recent expected goals, which the 1-point gap in the table does not yet show. Playing at home adds the rest.
