Under Marco Fritz, SC Freiburg picked up 2.50 cards a game, 55% above their own average in the same seasons (10 matches).

League matches since 2015/16 with the referee named (347). Cards = SC Freiburg's own yellows and reds. Club avg = their cards a game in the same seasons with every referee. Under 10 matches the gap is grey: too few to call. Referees aren't drawn at random - the big games go to the senior ones - so a gap here describes, it doesn't prove a bias.
