5 Highest Quality Chances from Premier League Week 3

A little slow getting this out this week but hey it's an international break and we are all kind of off our regular schedule.

Arsenal fans should probably avoid this week with the amount of shambolic defending that will be featured.

5) Harry Kane vs Burnley

Shot from feet in the center of the box, regular assisted shot, classified as a big chance: 0.40 xG.

Harry Kane just doesn't score in August.

4) Daniel Sturridge vs Arsenal

Shot from head from very close  range, assisted by a cross, classified as a big chance: 0.44 xG

That's about as wide open a header you will get. Sturridge did not miss his chance.

3) Mohamed Salah vs Arsenal

Shot from feet from very close range, following a cross, classified as a big chance: 0.54 xG

This is a really pretty movement from Liverpool to carve open Arsenal, Petr Cech makes a great save to deny a goal. 

2) Dele Alli vs Burnley

Shot from feet from very close range, following a corner, classified as a big chance: 0.76 xG

1) Mohamed Salah vs Arsenal 

Shot from feet from the center of the box, following a fast break, classified as a big chance: 0.77 xG

Not the best corner from Arsenal, a great one man fast break from Salah.

5 Highest Quality Chances from Premier League Week 2

I really liked how this turned out last week so I am going to go through this again.

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.
