As the Bundesliga restart approaches, how is the season shaping up statistically after 15 rounds of matches? bundesliga.com finds out...

• Defending champions Bayer Leverkusen went through the whole of last season unbeaten domestically, but this term every team has already lost at least once.
  
  
• With 445 goals across the first 15 matchdays (3.30 per game), the Bundesliga is averaging over three goals per match for the seventh consecutive year.
  
  
• For context, there were only two seasons with an average of three goals per game or more in the 30 years from 1988 to 2018.

Watch: The Bundesliga is back on 10 January!

• Goalkeepers have only saved an average of 66 percent of shots this season, continuing a steady decline in recent years; in 2007/08 it was 72 percent.
  
  
• Of the 43 penalties awarded so far, only 28 have been scored. That conversion rate of 65 percent is the lowest in the last 45 years – it was 63 percent across the entire 1979/80 campaign.
