Earlier this year, we produced a report on the defensive styles of teams in the German Bundesliga. We’ve now updated the report to include all data up to the end of the season, and are releasing it publicly.

StatsBomb data was designed to make analysing defensive style and performance easy and with the context required to get a true picture of how a team or player defends. The report includes analysis using our Pressure data and our 360 data - contextual event data that includes the location of all players in the frame around every event. We looked at where on the pitch a team is performing defensive actions, the volume of defensive actions they’re performing, and the intensity with which they perform those actions, demonstrating the power of our data when it comes to analysing teams or players for opposition and recruitment analysis.
