The Eredivisie xG table for 2025/26 tracks expected goals data for all 18 teams. This includes xG (expected goals), xGA (expected goals against), xPTS (expected points), npxG (non-penalty xG), xGoT (expected goals on target), and the goals vs xG overperformance metric.
Who has the best attack?
PSV top the xG charts with 67.3 expected goals from 30 games (2.24/90). They have scored 84 actual goals, outperforming their xG by +16.7.
Who has the best defence?
FC Twente have the tightest defence by xGA, conceding just 34.45 expected goals (1.15/90). Their actual goals conceded stands at 32.
Biggest overperformer
NEC Nijmegen are the biggest overperformers in Eredivisie, scoring 72 goals from an xG of just 54.52 — a difference of +17.5. This could indicate clinical finishing or luck that may not be sustainable over the full season.
Biggest underperformer
FC Groningen are the most wasteful in front of goal, scoring 42 from an xG of 54.04 (diff: -12). Regression towards their xG would suggest improvement is likely.
Understanding the xG metrics
xG (Expected Goals): The total expected goals a team should have scored based on the quality of their chances.
xGA (Expected Goals Against): How many goals a team should have conceded — lower is better.
xPTS (Expected Points): How many league points a team deserves based on xG performance.
npxG (Non-Penalty xG): xG excluding penalties, giving a truer picture of open-play chance creation.
xGoT (xG on Target): Expected goals from shots that were on target only.
+/- (Overperformance): The difference between actual goals and xG. Positive = overperforming, negative = underperforming.

xG (Expected Goals) measures the quality of chances created. Each shot is assigned a probability of being scored based on factors like distance, angle, body part, and assist type. A team's total xG reflects how many goals they should have scored based on their chances. Read more about xG.
