The xA (and xG for that matter) from Wyscout can be quite different than others. They don't seem to count shots that are blocked and other key passes that others count seem to drop off, they have him at 0.7 key passes while Opta has him at 1.4.

Wyscout data in general is always a bit less reliable (like the weird goal on the map) than others. It is a bummer because they have great video and it would cool to have it be one stop.
