| Measure | Man United | Aston Villa | How to read it |
|---|---|---|---|

| Change over the last 10 | -30 | -48 | Rating gained or lost over the last ten matches |
| Opposition strength | 1541 | 1525 | Average opponent rating over the last 20 matches. Above 1500 indicates a tougher schedule. |
| Shot share | 57.5% | 47.6% | Share of all shots in a match. Above 50% means the team takes more shots than its opponents. |
| Shots on target share | 60.2% | 43.8% | The same measure, counting only shots on target |
| Finishing and saving index (PDO) | 1017 | 988 | Shooting conversion plus save percentage, on a scale centred on 1000. Extreme values can reflect short-term variation. |
