Passing & Build-Up

Discipline

Arka Gdynia's starters have collected 29 yellow cards this season, compared to 28 for Gornik Zabrze. 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.
