🆕Analysis on ThSV Eisenach using Expected Goals (🇩🇪) 🔗daikin-hbl.de/de/more/conten…

The season is still young, but a 1st look at off. & def. efficiency shows that Füchse are doing very well in attack. Flensburg have the best defence. Eisenach is better than average in attack, but not in defence. This was even clearer last season. Reasons in the link above. 👆

Sporting CP is the positive surprise of the Machineseeker EHF Champions League season. They are great offensively and even better defensively, yet still incredibly young. 👉 ehfcl.eurohandball.com/men/2…

The field all-time scoring list is lead by right backs. The all-time per game scoring list is absolutely dominated by left backs. So is the real "Königsposition", the king's position rather right back than left back? 📖 daikin-hbl.de/de/more/conten…

Left Back is often called the "Königsposition", the king position in handball. But is that right? I dug deep into the numbers (German): daikin-hbl.de/de/more/conten…

The number of saves was the least meaningful goalkeeper statistic to predict the result of the game last @ehfcl Women, net save percentage, which counts only saves that lead to possession for the defending team, was the most meaningful. ➡️More: ehfcl.eurohandball.com/news/…

In the first article for @ehfcl this season I took a look at the goalkeepers for Brest and Ludwigsburg who face in this week's #motw as they use a different approach on how they split the time between their keepers: ehfcl.eurohandball.com/news/…

On the men’s side of #Olympics #Paris2024 Denmark is clearly the dominating team. Their offence seems just unstoppable. If anything, it's their defence that offers Germany chances in the final. Germany themselves have good numbers in both attack and defence.

The two best teams of the women's #Handball #Olympics tournament are also in the final. Hosts France impressed with by far the best offence according to the raw and adjusted data. Their opponents in the final, Norway, clearly have the best defence.

For the men’s competition Denmark clearly has the best numbers. They dominate offensively once again. Defensively they are good as well, however, adjusting their numbers to the strength of their opponents and filtering out garbage time their defense drops from first to the sixth.

Surprisingly, Germany is very strong offensively as well. Their match-up against France is going to be very interesting, as the hosts struggle a lot in offense as they have the second worst offence but are good defensively.

Not much content from me for #Paris2024, but here are at least some efficiency stats. The more to the right the better offensively, the more to the top the betterdefensively. The 1st picture is adjusted for opponents’ strength and gives a better impression on the actual strength.

On the women’s side hosts France clearly have the best attack, according to the raw goals conceded per 50 possessions Norway is the best team defensively. But adjusting for the fact that Brazil faced better offences they rank higher in the adjusted ratings.

As the saying goes - defence wins championships

STATS COUNTER: The numbers all point to the same reason for Barça winning another TruckScout24 EHF FINAL4 - defence, defence, defence
