Moneyball™

Football analytics for fans, scouts and clubs.

Winning Beyond The Numbers

The Moneyball mark
The perception gap01

Most fans see the score. Few see why it happened.

A 1-0 can hide a side that created five big chances and a side that created none. The numbers behind a match tell a different story than the result.

The scouting barrier02

Most clubs are not held back by ambition.

They are held back by signing on reputation instead of evidence.

From hunch to evidence03

A club can have the right coach, the right budget and the right ambition.


But if the shortlist is built on highlights, the season slows down.

What we do04

Moneyball is a football analytics platform helping fans, scouts and clubs see the game the way the numbers see it: clearer, fairer and earlier.

Scouting Players Research


Rating every player against the players who do his job

A centre-back is measured with centre-backs, a winger with wingers: per-90 figures adjusted for league strength, a Moneyball Score out of 100, every position he can play, his potential and a fair transfer value.

Moments that matter14

People come to Moneyball when football needs to carry more weight.

  1. 01When a fan wants to know why a match was won, not only that it was.
  2. 02When a scout needs a shortlist backed by evidence, not highlights.
  3. 03When a club plans a transfer window and every euro must count.
  4. 04When an analyst or journalist needs numbers they can cite.
Partner mindset15

We work as an analytics partner.

  • Close enough to understand the game.
  • Disciplined enough to trust the method.

Why we do this17

From the Founder

Moneyball has always been centred on one simple belief: every fan, scout and club deserves the analysis that only the richest clubs used to have.

That is what we care about most.

Dr. Rais Firdaus Handoko, founder of Moneyball

A lawyer by training and a football analyst by passion, I started Moneyball to put the kind of analysis clubs use within every fan’s reach, and to give clubs a sharper, fairer way to scout.

We measure carefully, explain plainly and show our misses next to our hits, so the numbers earn trust instead of asking for it.

If there is a conversation worth having, we would be glad to have it.
