Each match starts from the player's SportMonks match rating. Eighty per cent of the rating stands as it is; the other twenty per cent is scaled by how strong the opponent was on the Statz team ratings, and the result is capped at 10. A player's season rating is the average of their adjusted match ratings in league games where they played 45 minutes or more.
Because a 7.0 against the best side in the league is a better performance than a 7.0 against the worst. The adjustment credits players who did well against strong opposition and takes a little from those whose ratings came against weak sides.
It depends on the position. A striker is judged against the defence they faced and a centre back or goalkeeper against the attack. Wingers and attacking midfielders take three quarters from the defence, full backs three quarters from the attack, and central midfielders half of each.
Raw is the player's average SportMonks rating with no adjustment. Adj is how far the opponent adjustment moved it: positive when the player's ratings came against stronger than average opposition. Opposition is the average multiplier behind it, above 1.00 for a harder than average run of opponents.
João Pedro of Chelsea tops the Statz Premier League Player Ratings as of 9 November 2026, with an adjusted rating of 7.67 from 6 matches.
Five matches of 45 minutes or more early in the season, rising to ten once the league is 15 rounds in. The Premier League is 10 rounds in, so the table needs 5.
Every morning. The last two weeks of matches are recalculated each time, because SportMonks revises some match ratings in the days after a game.
