The brain read
Little between them on chances created — the xG read 2–1.7, shots 13–9 with 4–4 on target. Falkirk got into the box far more often (10 shots inside it to 6). On chances created the game was tighter than the 2–1 suggests.
A second opinion written by rule from the numbers on this page — where the shot picture and the xG disagree, it says so rather than picking a winner. Backward-looking only; it claims nothing about any future result.
