No 26/27 appearances

Federico Dionisi has not taken charge of a Serie A match in 26/27. The figures below are a career record. Over the last 10 Serie A games Federico Dionisi has officiated, the average is 4.00 cards a match — in line with the league average of 4.19. That splits 3.9 yellow and 0.1 red a game — a red in 1 of the 10. The away side sees more cards — 2.1 to 1.9 a game, flatter than the league's 0.3 gap. 5+ cards landed in 50% of those games (5 of 10), from a 14.4% foul-to-booking rate. Penalties come at about the league's rate: 4 awarded in 24 matches, 0.17 a game against a league average of 0.29. These are raw match figures from those games, not odds.

These are Federico Dionisi's own match figures — the raw card and foul counts from the matches covered. They're not adjusted for how aggressive the two teams are or whether it's a derby. The model layers those in — the referee tendency, each player's booking rate and an opponent card-induction factor — to price a specific leg. That combined verdict is the locked price and edge.

Career profile

The two numbers that matter are vs league — the multiplier the model applies to a player's booking chance — and conversion, the share of fouls Federico Dionisi turns into bookings. Conversion, not the raw foul count, is where a referee's real card tendency lives. Career figures across every Serie A season on record.

Frequently asked

How many cards does Federico Dionisi give per game?

Federico Dionisi averages 4.17 cards a game across 24 Serie A matches — roughly at the league average of 4.19. On a Federico Dionisi appointment, the model multiplies every player's booking chance by 1.00.

Is Federico Dionisi a strict referee?

No — slightly more lenient than most. The honest measure is foul-to-card conversion — the share of fouls that become bookings — and Federico Dionisi runs at 14.9% against a league average of 16.9%. Foul counts barely vary between officials; the rate at which a foul becomes a booking is where referees genuinely differ.

Does Federico Dionisi's record change bet builder card prices?

It should. The referee is the single biggest factor in the to-be-carded market, and the appointment is public before kick-off — so a strict official on a combative player is the archetypal card edge. The player cards guide walks through exactly how the model turns a tendency like this into a price.

How reliable is Federico Dionisi's card rate?

It rests on 24 career matches, a solid record. The model shrinks a referee's tendency toward the league average when the sample is thin and discounts its own confidence for officials with young records, so a number like this never gets trusted beyond what the evidence earns.

Rates shown are figures from public match data for context; the model adds shrinkage and an opponent factor, and discounts its confidence for thin referee records, before flagging any card as value. It compares against the bookmaker's price as offered — card markets are priced one side only, so that price still carries the bookmaker's margin. 18+ — please gamble responsibly.
