Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester City and Arsenal make up the top three in
the Huawei Team Ranking with each of them completing over 1,200 passes
in the opposition's half so far.
The Ligue 1 champions - who
trail Lille by just two points - have already racked up 1,592 successful
passes outside of their own half in five games, with this weekend's 1-1
away draw against Stade Rennais as yet another example of their
dominance in their opposition’s territory.
In the Premier
League, titleholders Manchester City and Arsenal have been the most
impressive passers on hostile ground in the opening weeks of the 2014-15
campaign.
City have so far completed 1,314 passes in the
opposition's half after four games, while Arsene Wenger's men have
accumulated 1,234 successful passes in as many matches, making them the
only three teams to have surpassed the 1,200 mark at this stage of the
season.
With both teams generally having plenty of touches in
the opposition half, it was little surprise there were chances galore in
this weekend's encounter at the Emirates Stadium, which eventually
ended in a 2-2 draw.
Meanwhile, Barcelona and Olympique
Lyonnais complete the top five with 1,199 and 1,194 successful passes
outside of their own half from three and five matches, respectively.
With
Bundesliga and La Liga underway just three weeks and Serie A just two
matchdays, the top 10 is dominated by teams from Ligue 1 and Premier
League.
Manchester United and Tottenham have racked up 1146
and 1,112 passes, respectively, with Lille (1,090 completed passes) and
Monaco (1,186) sitting eighth and ninth.
Finally, Jose
Mourinho's Chelsea are the 10th and last remaining team to have passed
the 1,000 successful passes in the opposition's half mark with 1,025.
