    Which goalscorers could improve in the Premier League this season?

    We’ve used StatsBomb’s expected goals (xG) data to identify the players whose goal tally in the Premier League last season differed the most from what those chances would typically have yielded. While finishing skill could well account for some of the discrepancies, players whose expected and actual goal tallies differ significantly tend to see those differences narrow or disappear over time, making xG a useful tool for identifying hot and cold streaks that will come to an end eventually.
