Other definitions for Opta’s stats can be found here. Data courtesy of Opta and mlssoccer.com.An “attempt” includes any effort to put the ball on goal, even if it goes wide or is blocked. The Attempts Ratio (AttRatio) is a team’s own number of attempts divided by that of its opponents, and the Shots-on-goal Ratio (SGRatio) can be interpreted in the same way, but only for attempts that are on frame. An average team has a ratio of 1.0, indicating that it produces the same number of shots that it gives up.  The Finishing Rates are calculated by dividing goals by attempts, as opposed to our PDO page which utilizes shots on goal to provide a different look at the data.
