By looking at the difference between first-half xG conceded (7.36) and xGOT conceded (3.29) it is clear that opposing players are producing less dangerous shots on goal than would be expected, given the location of the shot. In the first half, opponents are not finishing well.

The remainder of the first-half saw the same pattern apply; City dominated possession, with Palace continuing to look dangerous on the counter. Zaha came closest for the home side when his curling effort deflected narrowly wide of the far post. 041b061a72
