Bundesliga vs Premier League

10/10/2012

In reviewing the data in Opta on both leagues, I was surprised to see that in the Premier League there are more completed passes per game (875) than in the ‘Bundesliga’ (820) yet there is an average of less goals scored per game in the Premier League (2,80) than in the German league (2,95). Why do you think this is? What opinion do you have on this? We have opened a forum on this topic. Here is the link.
