Prematch Stats

Prematch stats condition are based on how individual events happened in the past.

Home or Away

For example you want to pick the match, where in last 5 matches:

Home Team Average overall GOALS count in history matches played is greater or equal to 3

For example we will use this match.

We see last 5 matches of home team. They results are: 6:2, 1:1, 0:3, 3:1, 2:3

So total goals scored is 22. If we divide 22 goals by five matches, we get the result 4,4 goals per match (22 / 5 = 4,4).

So this match fulfilled the condition, because is last 5 matches there is in average more than 3 goals score per match.

Same logic works for other conditions.

If we want only count goals scored by home team. We will use condition:

Home Team Average GOALS SCORED count in history matches played is greater than or equal to 3.

We see last 5 matches of home team. They results are: 6, 1, 0, 3, 2.

Total goals scored 12, Average scored goals per match: 12 / 5 = 2,4

So this match will not be picked, because home team in last 5 matches did not scored in average more than 3 goals.

We have also condition where you will use percentage.

For example: Home Team percentage of WIN in history matches played is greater or equal to 70 %

Lets check again our example match.

We see that our home team Junior Pro FC wins 4 matches and 1 was DRAW. So their win rate is 4 / 5 = 80 %.

The match will be picked, because 80 % is greater than 70 %.

TIP: If you use conditions for away team, it will work the same. Only difference is, that LivePick will use prematch statistics of away team.

Both Teams

There is also section, where you can set prematch stats conditions for both teams.

This is very useful, when you want to combine stats from home and also from away team.

For example you want to use condition:

Both Teams Average overall GOALS count in history matches played is greater or equal to 3.

Let again check our example match.

We see home team matches:
  • 6:2
  • 1:1
  • 0:3
  • 3:1
  • 2:3
Away team matches:
  • 1:0
  • 2:0
  • 1:1
  • 3:3
  • 0:1

Total goals per 10 matches is 34. Average goals per match is 34 / 10 = 3,4

So this match will be picked because 3,4 is greater than 3.

This is logic how both team is picking matches.

Same logic is per winning or losing in percentages.

Home team wins 4 match out of 5. So win rate of home team is 4 / 5 = 80 %

Away team wins 1 match out of 5. So win rate of away team is 1 / 5 = 20 %

BOTH TEAM win rate is 4 wins of home + 1 win of away. Total 5 wins out of 10 matches. 5 / 10 = 50 % win rate of both teams.

Advanced Settings

We have also advanced settings for prematch stats. Where you can create an even more advanced scenario for selecting matches based on history.

You can select how many matches you want to include from history. Minimum is 1 match and maximum is 50 matches. Be careful.. if you set for example 30 matches and you dont set minimum match (the last option). The match will not be picked if there is not enough matches in history!

Second option is how the matches can be old. Minimum is one month. Maximum is 2 years. The option is very useful if you want to compare only stats in current season etc..

Additional options are more complex. Lets break it down.

If you use first option - Take only history matches of Home/Away/both teams from currently playing league. It will take stats only for current playing league. So if the live match is from premier league. It will take only history from premier league based on the others criteria that you used. If there is not any matches for current league, the match will not be picked.

If you use second option - Take only H2H history matches. It will take only history between this two teams.

If you use third option - Skip all kind of friendly matches. It will dont count friendly matches. It will skip them like they never exist.

If you use fourth or fifth option - Take only history match of Home/Away/Both team played Home/Away side. It will take only history when home team played at home. Or Home team played away side. Or away team played home side or away team played away side. Same logic with both teams.

Lets check again our example. If we want:
Home team average overall goals is greater or equal to 3 in last 5 matches.

And we will also in advanced settings use:
Take only history matches of Home team when played at Home side.

It will take only this:

Total goals in 5 matches is 19. And avg goals per one match is 19 / 5 = 3,8 So in short. If you use option Home team played home side. It will use stats only when home team played in HISTORY at home side.

If you use option Home team played away side. It will use stats only when home team played in HISTORY at away side.

If you dont use this option. It will use all matches no matter in which side home team played.

TIP: Home side power is like the next player on the field. Think about it like this in your filters.

Last option is for minimum matches that must be in history.

For example you want stats from last 5 matches. But in history there is only 4 matches. So match will not be picked. Because there is not enough matches.

But if you use option for minimum matches. And you will set in on 4. It will pick the match. Because it will meet the condition for the minimum number of matches. But it will only be used if there are no 5 matches. If there are 5 matches in the history, then of course the statistics will be based on all 5 matches.

This option allows you to bypass the situation where, for example, you set that you want the last 15 matches from history, but there are only 12 of them. So you set the minimum amount on for example 10 and it will also pick the match and it will count statistics from the last 12 matches that are available.
