These are the top 5 highest quality chances produced in the Premier League this week with the inputs that went into them and the xG for each chance.
5. Richarlison vs Bournemouth
0.60 xG: Shot from feet, from very close range, from open play, classified as a big chance.
Not all high quality shots are pretty, this helps prove it.
4. Ben Mee vs West Brom
0.61 xG, Shot from head, from very close range, from a corner, assisted with a cross, classified as a big chance.
Headers are hard part 1.
3. Phil Jones vs Swansea City
0.65 xG: Shot from head, from very close range, from a set piece situation, assisted with a cross, classified as a big chance.
A beautiful delivery from Juan Mata on this free kick. Headers are hard part 2.
2. Joel Matip vs Crystal Palace
0.65 xG: Shot from head, from very close range, from a set piece situation, assisted with a cross, classified as a big chance.
Headers are hard part 3.
1. Eric Bailly vs Swansea City
0.79 xG: Shot from feet, from very close range, from a corner, classified as a big chance.
This is probably underestimating the chance quality because just getting his foot to the shot pretty much means that this is a goal. For those curious Paul Pogba's free header that was saved was a 0.25 xG shot.
