Percentiles from 0 to 100: 90 means better than 90% of clubs in the league, or in the world. Higher means more of that quality. The profile describes the club. It is not part of the score. Missing bars mean there is not enough data yet. How the profile works.

This season they are taking 3.00 points a game from 9 matches, while their performances have been worth 2.31. That is 6.2 points more than the football deserved, which our model calls lucky.

For context, the next club above them in the Primeira Liga is Sporting CP, rated 1693, and the next one below is Sporting Braga, rated 1546. The gap to the strongest side in the division, Benfica, is 97 rating points.

Compared with the rest of their league, their style stands out for very high shot volume.
