Reading the numbers
O. Dembélé leads the Ligue 1 assists standings on 5 assists for Paris Saint-Germain, with Vitinha (Paris Saint-Germain) level on the same figure. Third place belongs to B. Barcola on 4.
The table lists 12 players and 35 assists in total. Paris Saint-Germain are the best represented club in the top ten with 4 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 Ligue 1.
