I found this paper on-line and had a look.

In this video, I explain roughly what they are doing and the key formula: -

I've created a spreadsheet that replicates this, which I have attached.

What sites are people using to get the data to populate spreadsheets of this type?

The original paper states that their data is collected from https://www.football-data.co.uk/

Hey everyone this is excellent, big question i cannot seem to find stats to input in once place. for example corner stats against and shots against. I'm having to bounce between soccerstats.com foottystats.com and https://fbref.com. Sofa scores doesn't have all stats either. Anyone know where I can find all the stats to input into the spreadsheet from one site? thanks

Thanks, I saw that in the original paper.
It's just that site, in my opinion, is not very user friendly at all.
Anyway, no big deal now, I've found another site which is far easier to navigate.
