Squad Ratings

The overall squad rating for Anorthosis is 7.07, compared to 6.58 for Akritas. This metric is derived from each player's average match rating across all league appearances this season — anything above 7.00 is considered strong, while below 6.50 signals inconsistency. Anorthosis's highest-rated starter is S. Sensi (7.84), while Akritas's best-rated player is A. Limbombe (6.86).

Attacking Output

The starting XI of Anorthosis have contributed 15 goals and 8 assists this season, led by S. Sensi (6G). Akritas's starters account for 1 goals and 3 assists, spearheaded by N. Zinonos (1G). Goals reflect clinical finishing and chance creation, while assists highlight the ability to unlock defences through through-balls, crosses, and set pieces.

Defensive Solidity

Anorthosis deploy 4 defenders rated 7.04 on average, against Akritas's 5-man backline averaging 6.54. Higher defensive ratings suggest better positional awareness, fewer individual errors, and a greater likelihood of keeping clean sheets. The rating accounts for tackles won, interceptions, aerial duels, and blocks throughout the season.

Midfield Control

Anorthosis field 5 midfielders averaging 7.04, versus Akritas's 4 rated 6.67. Midfield ratings reflect passing accuracy, interceptions, key passes, and overall control of possession — the team that dominates midfield typically dictates the tempo and territory of the match.

Forward Threat

Anorthosis start 1 forward(s) averaging 7.07, compared to 1 for Akritas averaging 6.50. Forward ratings capture shot accuracy, movement off the ball, dribbling success, and involvement in build-up play — they indicate who carries the greater goal threat on the day.

Passing & Build-Up

Passing accuracy averages 82% for Anorthosis and 81% for Akritas. Higher passing accuracy generally indicates a possession-based style with patient build-up through the thirds, while lower figures may suggest a more direct, counter-attacking approach with long balls and quick transitions.

Discipline

Anorthosis's starters have collected 25 yellow cards this season, compared to 28 for Akritas. Yellow cards reflect how aggressively a team presses and tackles — a high count may indicate a physical, high-pressing style but also risks suspensions and late free-kicks in dangerous areas.

Age & Experience

The average age of Anorthosis's starting XI is 29.0 (youngest: S. Middendorp (21), oldest: R. Bezus (35)), while Akritas average 27.2 (youngest: N. Zinonos (21), oldest: A. Limbombe (31)). Younger squads typically offer pace, energy, and pressing intensity, while experienced lineups bring composure, game management, and the ability to handle high-pressure moments.

Squad Depth

Anorthosis's starters average 17 league appearances each, versus 18 for Akritas. High appearance counts indicate an established, well-drilled unit that the manager trusts week in and week out. Lower figures may suggest rotation, injuries, or emerging players still earning their place in the team.
