Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Althwith Orient scored seven from 5.39 xG, outperforming the chance-quality estimate by 1.61 goals. That is a notable return, though the 22 shots and 21 on target show the finishing was backed by a substantial volume of attempts rather than a handful of unlikely strikes. Stairker Town had three shots, all on target, and 0.76 xG without scoring. The gap between the sides was therefore not simply a matter of who had the ball: Althwith Orient converted repeatedly, while Stairker Town could not turn its limited attacking opportunities into a goal. Six corners for the visitors against four for the hosts offer a small reminder that pressure and possession do not always file their paperwork together.

• No Stairker Town players recorded a rating of 7.0 or higher.

The five-goal first-half burst settled the central question early; the two later goals made the margin still more pronounced. Althwith Orient finished with seven goals from 22 shots, while Stairker Town managed three attempts and no goal, despite putting all three on target. The hosts’ slight edge in possession was modest beside that difference in threat and finishing. For Varela and Hodgson, the numbers tell a particularly complete story: goals, assists and a result that never became uncertain. Stairker Town did win the corner count and record more dribbles, but neither figure altered the 7-0 final score.
