Question 1

Which Mali players hit the most shots on target?

Accepted Answer

Lassine Sinayoko leads with 5 shots on target across 7 qualifying appearances (0.71/g, 57% hit rate). The SOT-rate table below ranks every Mali player by SOT per qualifying appearance (≥20 minutes), six-game form mask and current Bet365 1+ SOT price.

Question 2

How does Mali's SOT profile look this season?

Accepted Answer

Mali are averaging 2 shots on target per game over 10 games and concede 3.3 for a match-total of 5.3. That ranks 9th of 53 for team SOT in their primary competition. They take 7.7 shots per game and create 3.5 key passes per game.

Question 3

How is the SOT matchup read calculated?

Accepted Answer

SOT matchup blends our attackers' on-target rate (50%) with the opposition's SOT conceded per game (50%). The more SOT the opponent typically concedes, the more on-target volume our attackers should produce.

Question 4

What's the difference between shots and shots on target?

Accepted Answer

Mali take 7.7 shots per game and put 2 on target. Players who shoot speculatively often have a low SOT-per-shot ratio; the context panel surfaces the shots/g funnel so you can see the conversion rate.

Question 5

Where do these SOT stats come from?

Accepted Answer

All numbers come from match-level Sportmonks data ingested into Statz — 10 Mali fixtures in the active window for 2025. Player odds come from Bet365 player markets when priced.

Question 6

How is conversion (Goals/SOT) useful?

Accepted Answer

Mali are currently converting 45% of their shots on target into goals. A high conversion rate means finishing well; a low one means SOT volume but not yet goals. Pair this with the shots/g funnel to read how the goals number is built.
