He has been dribbled past only 14 times in 143 league appearances during this period (0.13 per game). So, let's take a deeper dive into van Dijk and Araújo's respective statistics.

The statistics document that both van Dijk and Araújo regularly rank highly when it comes to being dribbled past, or in their case not, across their respective leagues. Meantime, van Dijk was hardly ever dribbled past during the first half of his Liverpool career.
