| Team Name | Wins (W) | Draws (D) | Losses (L) | Goals For | Goals Against |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Formulas Used
Points (Standard): PTS = (W × 3) + (D × 1) + (L × 0)
Points (Classic): PTS = (W × 2) + (D × 1) + (L × 0)
Matches Played: MP = W + D + L
Goal Difference: GD = Goals For (GF) − Goals Against (GA)
Win Percentage: Win% = (W ÷ MP) × 100
Tiebreaker Order: Points → Goal Difference → Goals For → Team Name (alphabetical)
Assumptions & References
- The Standard 3-1-0 points system (Win=3, Draw=1, Loss=0) has been used by FIFA and most professional leagues worldwide since the 1990s (FIFA Laws of the Game).
- The Classic 2-1-0 system was the standard before 1994 and is still used in some amateur and regional leagues.
- Goal Difference (GD) is the primary tiebreaker in most major leagues (Premier League, La Liga, Bundesliga, Serie A, UEFA competitions).
- Goals For (GF) is the secondary tiebreaker after GD, as per UEFA and FIFA competition regulations.
- All inputs (W, D, L, GF, GA) must be non-negative integers; fractional or negative values are not valid.
- A minimum of 2 teams is required to generate a meaningful standings table.
- Win% = (Wins ÷ Matches Played) × 100; displayed as 0.0% if no matches have been played.
