Every club, rated 1 to 20 by how it plays

What the 1 to 20 ratings mean. Each rating is where a club ranks against the other clubs in its own division, last season (2025/26), league games only. 20 is the top 5% of the division on that measure, 16 to 20 the top quarter, 1 to 5 the bottom quarter. A promoted club is rated on the division it played in last season.

264 clubs across 14 divisions, with this season's table, the next league game, the squad from our player cards and who is listed out.

  • Hover or tap a rating for the real number behind it.
  • Greyed ratings barely carry over from one season to the next. How a team plays (possession, passing) holds strongly; results only partly.
  • Formations first. Tap a shape, or swipe the pitch, to see the XI that last played it, its record, and who from that XI is out now. Tap a player for his ratings and card.
  • Which formation works best? Mostly we can't tell. Across all clubs, of 543 shapes used 6+ times, no more stood out from what our ratings expected than chance alone would give. The chart on each card shows why: nearly every range crosses the line.
