Percentiles from 0 to 100: 90 means better than 90% of clubs in the league, or in the world. Higher means more of that quality. The profile describes the club. It is not part of the score. Missing bars mean there is not enough data yet. How the profile works.
This season they are taking 1.50 points a game from 10 matches, while their performances have been worth 1.59. That is 0.9 points fewer than the football deserved, which our model calls fair. Their opponents this season have averaged a rating of 1300, an easier schedule than the Eredivisie average.
For context, the next club above them in the Eredivisie is AZ, rated 1522, and the next one below is Groningen, rated 1373. The gap to the strongest side in the division, PSV, is 199 rating points.
The Eredivisie itself is 11th in our world league ranking, where its average club is 1.03 goals per 90 worse than the top-five average.
