    Hi tomrollinson ,

     

    First, create an unjoined table and drag the League Position column of this table into the slicer:

    Table 2 = DISTINCT('Table'[League Position])

     

    Create three measures:

    Total Points = SUM('Table'[Points])

Rank = RANKX(ALL('Table'[League Position]),[Total Points],,DESC,Dense)

Measure = 
VAR __selected_value = SELECTEDVALUE('Table 2'[League Position])
VAR __ranking = CALCULATE([Rank],'Table'[League Position]=__selected_value)
VAR __bef = __ranking - 2
VAR __aft = __ranking + 2
VAR _cur_ranking = [Rank]
VAR _result = IF(ISBLANK(__selected_value)|| (_cur_ranking>=__bef && _cur_ranking<=__aft),1)
RETURN
_result

     

    Finally, put the measure in a visual object-level Filter to filter the data to be displayed only if the measure is 1:

     

    The page looks like this:

Hi tomrollinson ,

 

In the same way, you create a separate unjoined table for the team name inside the slicer.

 

Something like this:

Table 2 = DISTINCT('YourTable'[team name])

 

The logic behind this remains the same.

 

I would be grateful if you could provide me with sample data for testing, please remove any sensitive data in advance.
