Twitter statistician @experimental361’s model reckon we’ve got a greater than 50% chance of relegation based on goal expectation data gathered between the first game and now. I can’t argue with that based on how we’ve struggled in front of goal but let some easy ones in our own net.

No excrement, as we have scored less goals than everyone else therefore it would be strange if we weren’t predicted to be bottom on a ‘forecast’ based on goals scored to date would it not?

But it's not based on goals scored to date, it's based on the expected goals stats (although I don't know where these stats come from in League 2?)

Expected goals based on how many scored to date?

If we keep keeping clean sheets our expected goal stats should improve

Expected goals is calculated using chances created (not necessarily shots), shots, shots on target and actual goals and obviously how many of those you give away at your own end.
This account is quite dynamic and recalculates the tables after every game. I’m sure a few weeks ago we’d have been well adrift but a few clean sheets will have brought us back a bit bht thats only half the problem.

Maybe he doesn't spend all his free time on football forums arguing the toss😉 The model isn't based on goals scored so far. Have a look at the explanation on the website. I don't agree with the usefulness of all the analysis but some of it is quite interesting and can highlight over/under performing teams. For example, I think the stats showed we should have been running away with the Conference the year we went up.

Its a long way to the end of the season and things can change in so many different ways for so many clubs.

My own interpretation of our season thus far based on my own data ...
we dont threaten from set pieces of any sort we dont have many shots on target we dont win many penalties as we are not in the opposition box enough hence... we dont score many goals & our defensive performances fluctuate wildly
All of the above indicate to me that without a major shift in the first 4 items we wont be rapidly climbing the table anytime soon.
I would imagine that checking Lincoln's stats they have converted a decent number of set pieces into goals...i think in their big win a couple of weeks back they got 4 goals from corners alone.

The point in bold is evidenced by how happy Exeter were to head the ball behind for a corner on Saturday. We just don't ever look like threatening from set pieces.
