A player’s expected goals plus expected assists combined — the single best proxy for total attacking output, widely used in FPL.
Expected Goal Involvements sums a player’s xG and xA: the goals their shots should yield plus the goals their chances created should yield. It is the all-in-one measure of how much attacking threat a player generates.
In Fantasy Premier League, xGI per 90 minutes is the go-to underlying stat for spotting form before it shows up in points — a midfielder with rising xGI is about to return.
Compare a player’s actual goal involvements to their xGI: over-performers (returning more than xGI) tend to cool off; under-performers with strong fixtures are buy-low candidates.
KiqIQ’s differential and form tools rank players on xGI so pre-season and early-season picks are grounded in process, not last week’s luck.
xG (Expected Goals)
A metric that scores every shot by its probability of resulting in a goal, based on factors like shot location, angle, and assist type.
xA (Expected Assists)
A metric that measures the probability that a pass or cross will result in a goal, weighting each assist opportunity by the xG of the resulting shot.
Effective Ownership (EO)
In FPL, the share of active teams that gain from a player once captaincy is counted — often above 100% for popular captains.
Price Drop
In FPL, an overnight fall in a player’s price when enough managers sell them — the opposite of a price rise, and a hit to team value.
