The Stats: Hazard, Ashby-Hammond & League One GKs.
No statistic is perfect but the Goals Prevented Per 90 minutes can be an interesting way to look at how goalkeepers in League One are performing.

It's fair to say that Argyle have had their share of goalkeeping issues this season with neither Conor Hazard nor Luca Ashby-Hammond among the best between the sticks in League One.
So, it seemed like a good time to see what the stats say.
The first is: Prevented goals per 90.
It measures how many goals a keeper has saved compared to what an average keeper would be expected to concede from the same shots.
- Each shot on target the keeper faces is given an “expected goals on target” value based on where it was taken and how difficult the shot is.
- These values are added up to give the total expected goals on target the keeper should have conceded over a period.
