How to read these numbers Appearances are Ligue 1 matches the player played; other competitions are not included. xG (expected goals) and xA (expected assists) are the provider’s shot-quality models, shown as stored. A dash (–) means the statistic is not recorded, never zero (hover it for the reason). A column with no recorded value is left out. This page shows statistics and results only. It contains no sportsbook prices or betting lines. Current markets and StatsNext research are in the app.
