Cross-layer insights (interpretive)
Anchored to season side bias — not updated by pitch swaps.
Team overload is elsewhere (+9.4) but Fermín López is an on-ball creator stationed on the weaker flank — may need local possession to impact.
Heuristic classification — validate against match film for high-stakes use.
Team season lean (+9.4) favors this flank and Lamine Yamal is an on-ball creator type — overload feeds the primary chance creator.
