VfL Wolfsburg Stats 2025-2026

The statistical profile of VfL Wolfsburg in the 2025-2026 Bundesliga season tells a multifaceted story. With an average possession of 50.6%, WOB operate as a pragmatic outfit that does not depend on territorial dominance, instead thriving on transitions and direct attacking play — a legitimate strategic choice in the high-intensity Bundesliga. The pass accuracy of 83.5% provides context: higher completion rates generally correlate with possession but also reflect risk-averse passing, while lower figures can indicate a more direct, vertical style that accepts turnovers in exchange for penetration.

From an expected goals perspective, WOB's xG of 33.8 against an xGA of 33.1 produces a differential of +0.7. A marginally positive xG balance suggests the team is performing close to expectations, with neither overwhelming attacking dominance nor defensive vulnerability. The gap between expected and actual goals also matters: WOB have scored 36 actual goals versus 33.8 xG (overperforming by 2.2), which suggests clinical finishing that may regress towards the mean.

The disciplinary record of 47 yellow cards and 2 red cards across 26 matches (1.8 yellows per game) is average for the Bundesliga, indicating a competitive but not reckless approach to physical duels and tactical fouling. With 5 clean sheets in 26 matches, the defence has shut out opponents in 19% of fixtures. Improving this percentage will be essential if WOB are to climb higher in the Bundesliga standings during the run-in. Ranking 8th for goals scored and 7th for goals conceded, VfL Wolfsburg occupy a clear statistical niche within the 2025-2026 Bundesliga table.
