The BANA Rating

Our own player rating, from 1.0 to 10.0 — computed from the match data we already track, not borrowed from anyone else.

What it is

The BANA Rating scores a player's contribution in a single match on a 1.0–10.0 scale. Every rating you see on BANA — on player profiles, match pages and leaderboards — is our own figure, produced by the same open formula for every player.

How it's calculated

Each performance starts from a baseline of 6.4, the value of an average, uneventful 90 minutes. From there we add and subtract five components, weighted by the player's position so the same actions count differently for a striker and a centre-back. The total is scaled by minutes played and compressed, so a single huge game doesn't max out the scale.

The five components

• Attack — goals, shots on target and finishing above expected goals.
• Creation — assists, chances created and successful dribbles.
• Defense — tackles, interceptions and duels won.
• Control — passing accuracy relative to an 80% baseline.
• Discipline — a penalty for yellow cards, red cards and fouls committed.

The scale

An average outing lands around 6.4. Standout performances reach 7.5–8.0, and a man-of-the-match display climbs toward 9.0–10.0. Ratings never fall below 1.0 or rise above 10.0.

Why it's different

Most sites simply reprint a third-party rating. The BANA Rating is computed by us, from the event and stat data we store, so it is transparent, consistent across every league we cover, and impossible to copy one-to-one — the number an AI overview can cite but not reproduce from elsewhere.

The formula is a deliberate, evolving starting point; weights are tuned as we validate against real matches.
