How this is counted
Uses team stats from 80 Ligue 1 matches in the 2026-27 season, Aug 21, 2026 to Nov 1, 2026. Combined means both teams. The open game index is the average of three ratios against the league: combined shots, combined shots on target and combined corners per match, times 100. Goals are left out of the index because they swing so much on a few chances, and they get their own columns. Cards are yellows plus reds as OpticOdds stores them. Fouls come from each side's fouls won. Teams need 3 or more matches, and cup games are excluded. Only matches with full Opta coverage in OpticOdds are counted, so a match with missing stats never reads as zeros.
