Thin sample this season. Álvaro Fidalgo has played 4 matches (86 min) so far, so sections that need a bigger sample to say anything reliable are not shown here — they are missing on purpose, not broken. See all seasons combined →
01
What Patterns Define Him?
His repeatable signature. A step only appears if its reliability score (sample size × match coverage) reaches at least Medium confidence — pattern mining, not anecdotes.
RECEIVE
Left Half-Space, Middle third — mostly in the middle third (62% of his 45 passes)
84% completion · 45× in 4/4 matches
Signature: Only Receive shows a proven, repeatable pattern this season — too little evidence yet (4 matches loaded) for a fuller signature chain.
Not a pattern: progress — 0× (insufficient confidence, hidden — not enough evidence yet); arrive — 0× (insufficient confidence, hidden — not enough evidence yet); create / finish — 0× (insufficient confidence, hidden — not enough evidence yet) — omitted from the signature rather than presented as one.

In possession
What he does with the ball: build-up, progression, creation, carrying and finishing.
17 tracked carries (17.8/90, 5 progressive, 198m total) — the ball moving with his touches, a different signal from dribbles below (beating an opponent 1v1). this counts every touch-carry, not just his dribble attempts below — a fuller picture of how much of his ball-carrying is control-and-move rather than beating a man.

How does he create chances?
0 key passes (0.00/90), 0 of them assists — where his chance creation specifically comes from, 18 zones (6×3), showing his share of key passes originating there.

Tactical patterns — how his football actually looks
Three clustered sequence diagrams from his own event data — his three busiest routes: the way he progresses, the pattern behind his chances, and where a turnover turns dangerous.

Where does he lose the ball most?
This is a RATE, not a raw count — the share of his touches in each zone that end in a turnover, so a zone he simply plays in more often doesn't automatically look riskier. His weakest zone is the left wing in the middle third: 12% of his 8 touches there are lost (1 times).
Team
Team context
How much of the team runs through him, and what changes without him.
Real Betis's output per match with Álvaro Fidalgo (4 matches) versus without him (6 matches). Insufficient evidence — the without-sample is only 6 matches; treat every Δ below as noise until more games exist. A proper on-off model needs many more minutes.

Style and verdict
Style profile, closest comparables, and the summary.
Not raw event counts — football style scores: weighted models scored 0–100 against the 383 central mids in the pool (min 450 min). This is what separates players who post similar numbers but play differently. Proxy dimensions are inferred from on-ball data; true off-ball running / under-pressure context is not measured.

Why Tempo controller 80%: a weighted blend of retention 89 (weight 35%) + build-up 75 (weight 30%) + press resistance 74 (weight 20%) + progression 46 (weight 15%). The score reflects how distinctively his profile SHAPE matches this archetype vs his peers.

Similar Players — in style space
Closest comparables measured on the style scores above, within the same position family — so it separates how players are alike, not just how much they touch the ball. Each line explains the shared strength and the divergent mechanism. A light physical-profile term (height / weight; this player: 174 cm / 68 kg) is included at a quarter of one style axis's weight — enough to break ties between stylistic twins, not to override style.Scope: pooled across the La Liga, Bundesliga, Ligue 1, Premier League and Serie A, percentiled within each player's own league before comparing — a match from another league is marked with its league name.
Style, not quality:a high match here means two players tend to produce the ball in similar ways — it is not a ranking, a scouting recommendation, or a claim that they are equally good.

Summary
Álvaro Fidalgo is a tempo controller / deep-lying playmaker: 0.0 progressive passes, 0.00 key passes /90, 0 box entries, 0 goals from 0.00 xG. A box-to-box contributor across every phase.
Based on 4 matches (86 minutes) — an early read, treat with caution until more minutes are logged. He profiles as a tempo controller / deep-lying playmaker — best used in a system built around that identity.
His biggest room for growth is progression — even a modest improvement there would meaningfully lift his overall tempo controller profile.
