Season 16 Division 1 Stats and facts review
Hertha are the kind of the stats with a PVA of +2 , just over taking the champs Barcelona.
Few notes I calculate the stats leaders on PVA , positional value added.
Value added is simply how much above or below a team finishes statistically from its predicted ( pre ) position.
Positional value added takes into account how high up the table you finish. Otherwise Barcelona for example would have a value added of 0 or less most seasons. Thus success is important.
Hertha had a great season finishing 9 places above their predicted position, their VA of +9 is just above that of Stoke who were clear relegation material but finished a more the creditable 12th, they finished third in the stats just above Juventus who had a much better season this year.
Real Madrid and Genoa rightly are at the lower end of the stats. Real had a PVA of -0.43 and Genoa – 0.33 both with a value added of -7 showing that they finished 7 place below their expected position, with Atletico just above them . Lowest side Anderlecht had an up hill battle all season . Credit though to Stoke and Man City for avoiding the drop.
