The rating accounts for tackles won, interceptions, aerial duels, and blocks throughout the season.

Passing & Build-Up
Passing accuracy averages 80% for Chicago Fire and 82% for New England Revolution. 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
Chicago Fire's starters have collected 17 yellow cards this season, compared to 8 for New England Revolution. 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.

High appearance counts indicate an established, well-drilled unit that the manager trusts week in and week out.
