How much xG is a penalty
How much does a penalty add to xG
A penalty xG value is fixed to 0.76. At the moment there are no additional constraints for xG of shots in the same possession. So a sequence of shots in short succession (like a rebound after a save) could theoretically yield an xG value of > 1.

How is xG calculated
xG is calculated using a serious deep dive into the past. To measure the likelihood of shots being converted into actual goals, xG uses historical information from thousands of shots with similar characteristics to estimate how likely a goal is on a scale between 0 and 1.
What is the xG per shot
Expected goal assigns a value to each shot between 0.00 and 1.00 to reflect the probability that it will result in a goal. A shot that measures 0.01 xG suggests it could reasonably be expected to result in a goal one in 100 times.
What is the highest possible xG
1
The higher the xG – with 1 being the maximum, as all probabilities range between 0 and 1 – the higher the probability of scoring. In practice, that means if a chance has 0.2xG, it should be scored 20 per cent of the time.
