Champions League: like it short (Ajax) or long (Liverpool)?

Issue number 267 of the CIES Football Observatory Weekly Post analyses the exclusive data produced by our partners InStat by ranking Champions League teams according to the average length of the passes achieved in domestic league games so far this season. Past edition semi-finalists Ajax have the lowest figure (15.96 meters), ahead of Paris St-Germain (16.17) and Barcelona (16.56).

At the opposite end of the table are Czech champions Slavia Praha with an average length of 19.82 meters (+24% compared to Ajax). Title holder Liverpool has so far achieved the fourth longest passes among group stage participants: 19.45 meters on average. This figure is significantly higher than for their main Premier League rivals Manchester City (17.39).

The majority of high-profile teams are among those making the shortest passes. Apart from Liverpool, the only recent Champions League finalist with an average length of passes greater than 18 meters is Atlético Madrid. Diego Simeone’s team achieved the third lowest number of passes per game (379), while Lucien Favre’s Borussia Dortmund made the most (735).

Average length of passes

Domestic League matches played between 01/07/2019 and 12/07/2019. Data: InStat.

I swear if Conte can fight for the title with that Inter squad then he is truly a master manager.

[Vesper 27,283]

nil 1 Slavia

wow

[LAM09 6,535]

nil 1 Slavia
wow

Going to be interesting to see how they react having gone behind. Conte's team don't normally thrive in such scenarios.

I really have to question his lineup tonight

too much dregs

Danilo D'Ambrosio as a CB? when you have Godin and Alessandro Bastoni and Ranocchia to pick from???

and so sorry, but Candreva is SHIT now

washed up flotsam

Asamoah is meh meh meh

Nicolò Barella on the bench until just now

Valentino Lozaro the same

Matteo Politano the same

Lautaro Martínez, as usual was blääää

so do not see this great player all rave about

Its a shit team mate, and I think he will go for the title and focus on that. They just do not have the depth and quality to do both. If he can fight for the title with that team then im impressed.

Easy to critique them.

Great CB's

Great RWB in Lozaro

Really good MF except 

They have no AMF. Litterally. 

The have fuckall for Wingers after Politano unless Alexis come good

Fuckall for wingbacks and fullbacks other than Lozaro

And they so miss Icardi at striker

I do not like Lukaku or Martinez at CF

[Vesper 27,283]

Wooot

Barella

1 1

Yup too many gaping holes for them, Lukaku will do well for them I wager, Sanches not so much.
