Liverpool fans sometimes say that if not for Alisson, the Reds would be fighting against relegation this season. While this may not be true, Alisson saves Liverpool more than he should.
According to FBref, Alisson's xG against is 11.7. This metric shows that Alisson has denied Liverpool opponents about 12 goals this term, that's more than any other goalkeeper in the top 5 leagues.
The last time a goalkeeper saved that many goals was in 2018-19 when Jan Oblak did that for Atletico Madrid.
Next in line after Alisson are Bernd Leno and Kepa Arrizabalaga who have conceded seven and four goals less than expected. Ederson's xG against is -3.7 meaning he has not been that good at shot stopping this season and Man City have conceded more than they should have.
