COEFFICIENTS adjust the points awarded to teams a, and players of the teams, for in the games played.
A team bottom of the table, beating a team top of the table, can expect the points won by them to be double the amount the 'expected' team would win.
Here are the Team Coefficients for the Teams in The League and The Cups.
They are set by the team's performance in the League matches, across the last 8 (eight) league games.
The Coefficient the team started the season with is based on their form over the last 8 games of last season.
As the season progresses, this will change to become the current form in the league games over the last 8 games of this.
The League form feeds into the Cup coefficients as well,
Any promoted sides adopted the lowest coefficient of the team that avoided relegation last season, in the Premier League that was Chelsea who finished the season worst of the surviving teams over the last 8 games.
Any relegated sides adopted the highest coefficient of the teams that missed out on promotion, Southampton in The Championship, who finished the run in strongest of those not getting out of the league.
The handicaps are shown for all the leagues here, Premier to League 2, LaLiga, Bundesliga, Serie A, Ligue 1 and Scottish Premiership
