The GAA's Games Intelligence Unit has released its statistical analysis of Round 4 of the Allianz Football League.

The biggest contrast to last year's All-Ireland Championship numbers is the amount of contested kick-outs.

67% of kick-outs were contested in Round 4 of the Allianz Football League compared to just 26% in last year's championship.

The statistical analysis also shows that players hand-passed less and shot more than they did in last year's championship.
