Playing Style Profiles

Unai Núñez

Núñez is a throwback defensive specialist masquerading as a modern ball-player in a lower-tier La Liga side. While his 86.7% pass accuracy and high volume of touches suggest a sophisticated playmaker from deep, the reality is more industrial; he is a safety-first distributor who lacks the creative vision to unlock midfields, ranking in the bottom 10% for chance creation.

Matheus Nunes

A Active Full-Back. Statistically, he stands out as a reliable supplier (0.17 assists/90), active in the tackle (1.9 tackles/90), meticulous in distribution (89% pass accuracy), wins the physical battle (59% duel success), heavily involved in possession (68 passes/90), central to possession (91 touches/90) and active off the ball (2.8 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions.
