Frequently Asked Questions
Which Brazil players make the most tackles?
Douglas Santos leads with 24 tackles across 9 qualifying appearances (2.67/g, 100% hit rate). The tackle-rate table on this page lists every Brazil player with their tackles per qualifying appearance (≥20 minutes), six-game form mask and current Bet365 1+ tackles price for the next fixture.
How does Brazil's tackle profile look this season?
Brazil are averaging 18.2 tackles per game over 10 games and concede 14.1 for a match-total of 32.3. They average 22.75 tackles per take-on attempted against them (opposition averages 1.14 take-ons/g).
How is the tackle matchup read calculated?
Tackle matchup blends the defender's tackles per game (50%), the opposition attacker's take-on rate (30%), and the defender's underlying tackle propensity (20%). For the upcoming fixture against Japan, the page's matchup read uses each opposition forward's last-season dribble rate to weight Brazil's defenders.
Where do these tackle stats come from?
All numbers come from match-level Sportmonks data ingested into Statz - 10 Brazil fixtures in the active window for 2026. Player odds come from Bet365 player markets when priced. Pre-match lineups are predicted lineups until team news lands, then confirmed.
What counts as a qualifying appearance?
A player must have featured for at least 20 minutes in a fixture for that match to count toward their tackle rate and form. Cameo appearances are excluded so the rates aren't diluted by 5-minute substitutions.
Do tackles count attempted or only successful?
We count attempted tackles per Sportmonks' definition. That matches what Bet365 settles 1+ tackles markets on, so the page's hit-rate and the bookmaker's pricing are aligned.
