The xG Premier League table that puts West Ham above Manchester United, Chelsea, Fulham and more

West Ham United are performing well below their predicted points score according to xG, despite their recent victory over Wolves.

According to expected goals data, West Ham, who lie in 15th place with seven points, are actually 3.74 points worse off than expected.
With five goals scored and nine conceded in eight games, the Hammers are well below where they would like to be.

But the “expected points” Premier League table would actually suggest they are picking up worse results than their performances deserve. West Ham are the most underperforming side in the league, with their seven points in eight games well below the 10.74 expectation.
