Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Soccer Simple Stats Tracker at 97% against Possession Basic's 50%. Soccer Simple Stats Tracker also leads on ratings volume (46 vs 1) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 3 months). Possession Basic's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and rating (5.0 vs 4.6). On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Possession Basic sells 4 one-off in-app purchases and Soccer Simple Stats Tracker sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Possession Basic holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.6. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Soccer Simple Stats Tracker has 46 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of Possession Basic's written reviews are positive against 97% of Soccer Simple Stats Tracker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Possession Basic ships an update every 3 months, Soccer Simple Stats Tracker every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 14, 2026 respectively.
