Ball-Playing CBAerial
A Ball-Playing CB. Statistically, he stands out as commanding in the air (4.7 clearances/90), meticulous in distribution (88% pass accuracy) and uses long balls frequently (6.5/90). The three most similar players to Vitão by playing style are:
- Martin Vitík(90% match) — Vitík has quietly built a case as one of Serie A's more composed defensive presences this season—a centre-back who wins his battles on the ground before they become aerial problems. His duel win rate sits in the top 20% of the league, which tells you something important: this isn't a defender who scrambles, he positions himself to make duels winnable. The counterintuitive read on his below-average interception numbers is that they may reflect conservative, disciplined positioning rather than passive defending—his tackle success rate in the top 30% suggests he's not missing challenges, just not gambling on them.
- Carlos Augusto(87% match) — A Active Full-Back. Statistically, he stands out as naturally left-footed, active in the tackle (2.5 tackles/90), meticulous in distribution (88% pass accuracy), wins the physical battle (65% duel success), central to possession (77 touches/90), dominant in the air (4.0 aerials won/90, 76%) and top 10% tackler in the league. Note: this profile is based on 653 minutes of playing time this season.
- Mariano Troilo(87% match) — A Ball-Playing CB. Statistically, he stands out as comfortable with both feet, active in the tackle (2.2 tackles/90), commanding in the air (7.8 clearances/90), reads the game exceptionally (1.8 interceptions/90), meticulous in distribution (90% pass accuracy), wins the physical battle (56% duel success) and active off the ball (2.5 press score/90), contributing to defensive transitions. Note: this profile is based on 541 minutes of playing time this season.
