90% range of final pointsmedian

Current points plus 10,000 simulated runs of the remaining fixtures. Each team's attack and defence is estimated from its xG and xGA so far (pulled towards the league average early in the season), including home advantage. Team strength itself is treated as known, so the real uncertainty is somewhat wider.
