How it works

Counts the yellow and red cards a club picks up per league game and compares it with the league. Cards per foul is shown alongside: a pressing side can foul a lot without being dirty, while a side booked for most of its fouls is making the cynical ones.

/ = roughly the top or bottom 15% of the league, / the next 20%, the middle. “Could be chance” means the gap is small enough to be luck. League games only.
