What did we measure but not count?
Los Angeles FC average 6 points more possession, but the rating gap here is 274 points. Our control receipt only exists between near-equals — there it moved results; across a class gap we could not measure a separate style edge, so style scores 0 here. Los Angeles FC have played 3+ games in the last two weeks; their opponents haven't. Between equals, congested home sides won 47.0% of 2417 measured games and congested visitors 28.2% of 2460 — the cells disagree with each other and with the flat rest table, so schedule stays a watch item at 0 points. The other measured facts on this page scored nothing either.
