The TOP FIVE Worst Finishers In European Football (Based On Their xG Stats)

With most leagues in Europe reaching the halfway stage of the season, we felt it was a good time to look at the players who have the worst finishing stats.

For this list, we will be assessing footballers playing in Europe’s top five leagues (England, France, Germany, Italy and Spain).

To get our top five, we will be comparing the number of goals a player has actually scored and subtracting their xG to see who is failing to put away their chances
