Posted: 11:58 Wednesday 11th August 2021
Premier League Referees: All of the stats for this season's appointments.
The Premier League returns to our screens this weekend, with newcomers Brentford hosting Arsenal on Friday night.
Ahead of the action kickstarting, BettingOdds.com brings you the stats for every referee selected to officiate each top-flight fixture in 2021/22. We’ve assessed their figures from last season (league only) which will hopefully be of benefit to you when selecting your Bet Builders this time out.
There will be four new additions to the PL this season, which you can read about more in our dedicated article here, alongside some familiar names who have taken charge of matches in England’s first division for a number of years.
Premier League Referee Stats - 2020/21
Table ordered by highest yellow cards per game.
Avg. booking points p.g calculated by awarding 10pts for each yellow and 25pts for each red; 2 x yellow = 35pts. Total then divided by overall appearances.
