Barcelona set an unprecedented record in the history of La Liga, achieving an expected goals (xG) rate of 6.30 during their match against Elche, marking the highest figure recorded in La Liga since the adoption of this advanced statistical metric.

The match witnessed absolute offensive dominance from Barcelona, with nearly 30 attempts, most of which were from inside the penalty area and in high-quality scoring positions, reflecting the team's clear superiority in creating chances and breaking the opponent's defensive organization.

Despite this flood of opportunities, the match ended with Barcelona winning 3–1 only, which opened the door to discussions about scoring efficiency. The coaching staff indicated that the team could have scored more goals given the quantity and quality of the available chances.

The Expected Goals (xG) metric is an accurate measure of the quality of chances, not just the number of goals scored. It takes into account the location of the shot, the angle of play, defensive pressure, and the type of opportunity.

This record confirms that Barcelona is experiencing a strong offensive phase this season, also leading the team rankings in terms of total xG, reflecting the development of the offensive system despite the need to improve goal conversion.
