D3 Season 8 stats and facts review
Liege and Hellas battled it out for the title and for the stats in D3, Saint Etienne, Leicester and Southampton fail to perform.
Liege no one would argue were a cut above in D3 with a +34 GD almost a goal a game better than their opponents.
They get the PVA award but Hellas in 2nd push them close at +2. Sao Paulo pushed themselves into the playoffs and a high stats finish, but this proved to be a game too far as it did for +8 VA Fenerbache.
At the wrong end Southampton , clear promotion candidates got -12 VA and -0.79 PVA a miserable performance all round, but this was eclipsed by ST Etiennes fall from grace finishing last and -8 VA. Leicester narrowly avoided the chop on -8 VA in 16th.
5 of the top 6 were accurately predicted as were 3/4 relegated teams.
