World Cup xG Lab
TeamsPlayersModelCoverage
StatsBomb powers the past chance-quality model and shot-location views. FBref adds recent league-form context. Understat adds club xG context. DataMB adds 25/26 percentile scouting profiles. This dashboard is not a guaranteed 2026 World Cup prediction model.

Data read

Limited evidence

When the historical sample is weak, use recent club and league context to understand role, volume, and form.

Player summary

Scott McTominay has limited historical shot evidence.

This player has only 7 historical shots in the dashboard, so the expected-goals model has limited evidence.

Recent club, league, and scouting context from recent league form (FBref), club xG context (Understat), experimental xG check can still help describe their current role and shooting volume where available.

Takeaway: this player page is more useful for scouting context than model-based conclusions.

Modeled Understat chances

  • - Player data describes past available samples and club context, not a 2026 World Cup forecast.
  • - StatsBomb powers the past chance-quality model; recent league form, club xG, and percentile profiles are context layers.
  • - Small shot samples can make xG and finishing numbers noisy.
  • - Missing source matches can come from league coverage or player-name differences.

How to read this dashboard

StatsBomb

Past shot samples used by the expected-goals model. Not a 2026 prediction.

DataMB

25/26 percentile scouting profiles. Percentiles are not raw stats and are not model inputs.

FBref

Recent club and league form context. Not used by the trained expected-goals model.

Understat

Club expected-goals context from covered leagues, plus a separate experimental xG check where clearly labeled.
