Team conceding stats

Conceded over 0.5 shows how often a team lets in at least one goal. The direct inverse is the clean sheet rate, which sits at the bottom of this page. These two figures are the same event viewed from opposite directions: a team with a 70% conceded over 0.5 rate has kept a clean sheet in 30% of their matches this season.

Conceding stats are most useful when paired with an opponent's scoring data. A team conceding in 80% of matches tells you something about their defensive organisation, but what it means for a specific fixture depends on who is attacking them. Cross this page with team scoring stats to see whether the upcoming opponent has the attacking output to take advantage of a leaky defence.

A clean sheet is a match in which a team does not concede a single goal. The term comes from the old habit of writing results on a sheet that stayed blank in the goals-against column. Keeping a clean sheet means the defence and goalkeeper shut the opposition out for the full ninety minutes.

The Premier League goalkeeper who keeps the most clean sheets in a season wins the Golden Glove. The single-season record is 24, set by Petr Cech for Chelsea in 2004/05, and the strongest defences in a season tend to shut opponents out in around 40 to 50% of their matches.

Clean sheet rate sits behind the clean sheet and win to nil markets, and it is one half of the both teams to score picture. Read it next to the opponent's scoring form, because a strong defensive record counts for far less against a side that scores freely. The BTTS stats page shows both ends of the same question.

They are the same stat expressed differently. Conceded over 0.5 is the percentage of matches where the team let in at least one goal. Clean sheet rate is the percentage where they did not concede at all. A team with a 75% conceded over 0.5 rate has kept a clean sheet in 25% of their matches.

A clean sheet is one of two ways BTTS no can settle. The other is if the opposition fails to score. A team keeping clean sheets contributes to BTTS no from their side, but BTTS no also requires the other team not to score, so both sides' attacking output matters.

Teams that regularly concede two or more goals per match tend to feature in high-scoring fixtures when paired with an attacking opponent. Conceded over 1.5 is directly relevant to total goals markets, opponent team total markets, and BTTS research when the attacking side is reliable.

The opponent hit rate shows how often the next scheduled opponent's matches have produced the same conceding condition from their side. It is calculated from the opponent's own season record and updates daily as results come in and fixtures are confirmed.

Yes. Use the venue filter in the table to isolate each team's conceding rate at home or away. Many sides concede at significantly different rates home and away, particularly outside the top divisions where home advantage tends to be more pronounced.

It is the team's total goals conceded this season divided by total matches played. The figure complements the conceded hit rates by showing the average severity of goals let in. Two teams with the same conceded over 0.5 rate can have very different average totals if one is concedeing 1 per match and the other is conceding 3.
