Stats dashboard for the defeat to Lincoln.
Key takeaway's include having the thick end of 73% ball possession yet only creating 6 attempts on goal compared to 18 for Lincoln. Of course we have to take into account playing the last 30 minutes or so with 10 men so enhanced deep circulation of the ball makes sense but even so it's an area that may be worthy of further analysis as the season progresses.
This is further confirmed when looking at the xG data, based on which xPTS for Notts comes in at just 0.40 points and a meagre expected win percentage of 7.4%.
Another area of concern for this game was the lack of threat from the wide areas, normally a strength of Notts' game but again a change in formation to a back four and and again having to readjust to playing with just ten men will have impacted on this.
