ProfileBelow averageBelow average 360
Malta are a mixed-profile side in National teams, carrying a 360 score of 38.6. Their defensive solidity (44.6) is their standout quality. Significant challenges ahead, with most metrics below the competitive average. Malta present a mixed profile across the four dimensions, without one trait that defines them. No single dimension stands out as particularly strong. Work is needed in attack to become a more complete side.
Composite of the four quality pillars, weighted Attack 35% · Defense 35% · Form 20% · Solidity 10%. Every score is 0-100 relative to National teams.
