How this is counted
Player tables count starts in 98 Serie A matches in the 2026-27 season, Aug 22, 2026 to Nov 1, 2026, for outfield players with 4 or more starts. A rung is the share of starts strictly over the line. Tackles are Opta's total tackles, fouls are fouls committed, fouls drawn are times fouled. The possession section uses 196 team games, each team's possession against the other team's tackles and fouls. A correlation of 1 would mean possession explains the stat fully, 0 not at all. A team's opponent fouls come from the team's fouls won, because OpticOdds stores fouls committed at the team level as 0. Only matches with full Opta coverage in OpticOdds are counted, so a match with missing stats never reads as zeros.
