Stability / chaos notes

  • This looks like a lower-event league: goals per match sit below the usual high-scoring threshold.
  • Power spread is wide, so hierarchy is clearer and top-vs-bottom gaps matter more.
  • Draw frequency is high, which often means fewer easy separation spots between mid-table teams.
