The overall squad rating for San Diego is 7.04, compared to 6.68 for Austin. 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. San Diego's highest-rated starter is A. Dreyer (7.66), while Austin's best-rated player is B. Stuver (7.38).

The starting XI of San Diego have contributed 25 goals and 15 assists this season, led by M. Ingvartsen (11G). Austin's starters account for 9 goals and 7 assists, spearheaded by M. Uzuni (5G). Goals reflect clinical finishing and chance creation, while assists highlight the ability to unlock defences through through-balls, crosses, and set pieces.
Defensive Solidity
San Diego deploy 3 defenders rated 7.02 on average, against Austin's 4-man backline averaging 6.47. 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
San Diego field 4 midfielders averaging 6.92, versus Austin's 4 rated 6.72. 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
San Diego start 3 forward(s) averaging 7.17, compared to 2 for Austin averaging 6.65. 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 88% for San Diego and 80% for Austin. 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
San Diego's starters have collected 14 yellow cards this season, compared to 16 for Austin. 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.

The average age of San Diego's starting XI is 22.9 (youngest: D. Ferree (19), oldest: M. Ingvartsen (29)), while Austin average 27.0 (youngest: N. Dubersarsky (21), oldest: B. Stuver (34)). 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
San Diego's starters average 12 league appearances each, versus 12 for Austin. 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.
