Reading the numbers
F. Wirtz leads the Bundesliga assists standings on 8 assists for Bayer Leverkusen, with J. Musiala (Bayern Munich) 2 behind. Third place belongs to J. Kimmich on 6.
The table lists 12 players and 41 assists in total. Bayern Munich are the best represented club in the top ten with 3 entries, which says as much about how they share the workload as about individual quality.
An assist is the pass that directly leads to a goal, and it is the cleanest measure of creativity we have. The table rewards the final ball rather than the build-up, so a midfielder who plays the killer pass will outrank a deep-lying playmaker who starts the move. Read it alongside goals: a player high on both lists is usually the one his team cannot replace.
When comparing entries, remember that opportunity drives output. Minutes played decide how often a player can add to his tally, so a squad player with a strong per-90 rate can outrank a starter over a full season. Every figure on this page is recalculated after each round, so the order you see is the order after the most recent matchday in the Bundesliga.
