Football Pass Accuracy & Possession Calculator

A pass accuracy calculator works out the percentage of passes a team or player completes successfully, and this tool also calculates ball possession share. Pass accuracy is one of the most quoted football stats: it is simply completed passes divided by attempted passes, times 100. A top midfielder might complete 90%+ in a controlled game, while a direct, long-ball side may sit lower without it being a weakness.

Enter the number of passes completed and attempted to get the accuracy percentage, the number of misplaced passes, and the completion ratio. Optionally, enter how long your team and the opponent each had the ball (in seconds) to get the possession percentage for both sides — possession is each team's ball time divided by the total ball time. Together these two metrics describe how much a team controlled the game and how cleanly they used the ball. It is ideal for coaches reviewing a match, students analysing performance, or fans digging into the numbers. Everything is calculated instantly in your browser, free, with no sign-up and nothing stored.

Frequently asked questions

Divide completed passes by attempted passes and multiply by 100. For example, 412 completed out of 487 attempted is 412 ÷ 487 × 100 = 84.6%.

It depends on style. Possession teams and central midfielders often exceed 88–92%, while direct teams and forwards attempting risky passes may be lower. Context matters more than the raw number.
