Methodology
The idea is to have 2 fixture ease schedules as teams don’t have the same quality of defence as they do attack. Take Sheffield Utd for instance. Good defence but poor attack.
The attacking players fixture schedule will rank the teams by the ease of the opposition defences they face over the upcoming games.
I’ve taken the overall picture of an average of actual goals and expected goals from and made a general adjustment for home and away which has been significantly reduced for closed door games.
I have a fixture graphic below which I’ve colour coded for difficulty. It is just to improve the visual aspect of the schedule and the factors I’ve talked about above, rather than the just the colours, are basis for calculation.
