Question 3

How is the foul matchup read calculated?

Accepted Answer

Question 4

Where do these foul stats come from?

Question 5

What counts as a qualifying appearance?

Accepted Answer

A player must have featured for at least 20 minutes in a fixture for that match to count toward their foul rate and form. Cameo appearances are excluded so the rates aren't diluted.

Question 6

Does the referee affect foul counts?

Accepted Answer

Yes — the referee profile module shows the assigned official's average fouls and yellows per match this season. Some referees blow for materially more fouls than others.
