League Strength League Strength uses the mean Elo of this league's clubs on a separate fixed 0–100 scale. L90 Strength rates each club from its own Elo with a different calibration. League Strength is not the average L90 Strength, and the two scores are not directly comparable.51 / 100Avg L90 Strength 32 · mean Elo 1519

Our take

A two-team title race is taking shape.

Feyenoord lead the title forecast with a 48% chance, while PSV Eindhoven are their main challenger at 43%. The rest of the league share a combined 9% chance of winning the title. Feyenoord and PSV Eindhoven are above the league average in both Attack and Defence, giving the title forecast a clear strength context.

League Strength 51/100 indicates a competition near the middle of our league rating scale. Competitive Index 35/100 suggests a moderately open title race. 81 of 306 matches have been played (26%). There is still a substantial part of the season left to play.

Expected vs Actual Points

Points use identical covered matches on both axes.Only clubs from the selected league season are shown. Diagonal marks Actual = Expected. Above it means more points than expected; below it means fewer. Dashed lines mark group averages. Selected league-season totals. xPts = 3 × win probability + draw probability, from stored LOAD90 forecasts. Pts and xPts cover exactly the same matches; uncovered matches are excluded from both. Saved pre-match forecasts and historical reconstructions are labelled separately. These totals can differ from the league table; they are not derived from xG.

Key insights

Automatic descriptive highlights from current Eredivisie clubs. Each metric is ordered within its own type; types alternate to keep the selection varied. Up to six cards, normally one per club and at most two when the selection is small.

Result statistics require at least five known completed matches. They use the last ten recorded results across all competitions, or the last eight away results. Future, special and invalid results are excluded; missing results can interrupt real-world sequences, so streaks refer to recorded results. 10+ means at least ten within the window.

Bars run oldest to newest. Height shows goals scored, or goals conceded in conceding cards, on the same 0–6 scale. Six or more goals use maximum height; zero retains a small marker. Colour shows the result: teal = win, amber = draw, red = loss. In event and streak cards, solid bars mark the event and faded bars mark its absence. Hover for the date, full score and event. xG and points cards compare their two inputs, not a fabricated history.

xG Difference uses observed Playing style averages; window size is not xG coverage and the two metrics can have different denominators. Points minus xPts uses the same covered current-league matches and stored forecasts as Club strength, including labelled historical reconstructions.

    How this team is selected

    Match ratings from this competition and matchweek, with at least 60 minutes played. Eligibility uses the recorded starting formation of that specific match, never the player profile position. Ratings retain their original 0–10 scale; they are not L90 Strength.

    Both 4–3–3 and 4–2–3–1 have GK, LB, two CBs, RB, LW, ST and RW. The 4–3–3 adds three central midfielders; 4–2–3–1 uses two holding midfielders and one attacking midfielder. In 4–3–3, DM or CM can fill central midfield; AM performances are reserved for the attacking midfield slot in 4–2–3–1. In 4–2–3–1, DM or CM can fill holding midfield, while the AM slot requires an actual AM performance.

    Wing-backs can fill the same-side full-back slot; wide midfielders the same-side wing. The recorded starting role is shown in brackets when it differs from the XI slot. Central defenders cannot fill full-back slots, and central strikers cannot fill wing slots.

    Each formation independently fills as many eligible slots as possible, then maximizes the total raw rating. Equal XI totals use total minutes, then player and match IDs. Formations are ranked by filled slots, then total raw rating; equal formation scores prefer 4–3–3. Each player appears once per XI. Double gameweeks retain separate match roles and ratings for the assignment.

    Missing or unsupported starting grids are excluded, including substitutes without a recorded role. In-match role changes are not inferred from starting lineups. The latest numbered matchweek with a recorded result is shown first. Unfinished rounds are provisional; postponed games stay in their original matchweek. Only completed matches with recorded scores and past kickoff times are considered; special-status games are excluded.

    The bench is selected after the XI: one GK, two DEF, two MID and two ATT. Every appearance of a selected starter is excluded. DEF includes full-backs, wing-backs and centre backs; MID includes DM, CM and AM; ATT includes wide midfielders, wingers and strikers. The same match eligibility and raw-rating assignment apply, with each player selected once. Missing groups stay unfilled. Bench ratings do not affect formation rankings.
