Shots we expect from each player if they start — lineups land about an hour before kickoff. From 2025/26–2026/27, all club matches.

1 in 3 = booked about once every three games last time out — a record, not a forecast. Players with fewer minutes are pulled toward the league average, so a small sample never reads as a certainty.
