Playing Style Analysis

Ball-Playing CBBall-PlayingSmall Sample

Peres is the quintessential high-volume outlet trapped in a defensive designation, functioning more as a localized playmaker than a traditional backline anchor. While his Tier C team struggle for dominance, Bruno operates as their primary distributor, ranking in the top 10% for passes per 90 (55.8) and matching that frequency with an elite 88.1% accuracy. His defensive profile is a study in contrasts; he is a master of the anticipation game, placing in the top 10% for interceptions, yet he remains a non-factor in the physical scrap, evidenced by his abysmal bottom-10% ranking for ball-winning and press intensity. The three most similar players to Bruno Peres by playing style are:

  • Pedro Lima(85% match)A Defender. Statistically, he stands out as wins the physical battle (60% duel success). Note: this profile is based on 632 minutes of playing time this season.
  • Clinton Mata(84% match)A Ball-Playing CB.

  • Jorge Herrando(84% match)A Ball-Playing CB. Statistically, he stands out as naturally left-footed, commanding in the air (5.8 clearances/90) and meticulous in distribution (88% pass accuracy). Note: this profile is based on 892 minutes of playing time this season.
