Brighton 0-1 Arsenal — xTears 10.08 (04/03/26)

Arsenal won 0-1 against Brighton on 4 March 2026 during Matchday 29 of the Premier League, even with the xTears split tilting slightly the other way. Total damage: 10.08 xTears.

Even with the xTears split leaning slightly the other way, the heaviest moments for Arsenal still ran through B. Saka at 9' goal (+1.41 xT) and Y. Ayari at 90+4' yellow card (+1.22 xT).

The scoreboard and xTears did not tell exactly the same story: Arsenal punished better without fully owning the emotional volume.
