Bundesliga Statistics: Week Three

A belated wel­come to the third edi­tion of Bun­desliga Sta­tis­tics, cov­er­ing match­day three. As you may have noticed this post has been a long time in the mak­ing. I have returned from my unan­nounced vaca­tion, so have no fear, timely updates will reap­pear. “But Mark,” you may begin to ask, “why did you choose this week and not the next, you know, when all those inter­na­tion­als take place?” Or per­haps even you’re won­der­ing, “how is it pos­si­ble to take a vaca­tion from some­thing that isn’t even a job?” Both good ques­tions that must, for now, go unan­swered as we crunch the pre­vi­ous week’s num­bers. As you’ll notice I’ve (yet again) intro­duced a new lay­out for the sta­tis­tics. Once I land upon some­thing sat­is­fac­tory I promise I’ll stop.
