Match Live
How quickly do scores and goals appear?
Match Live checks for new data every few seconds; a goal usually shows within 10 to 30 seconds of the moment Sportmonks records it. A goal taken back by VAR is shown as no goal.
How do I hear the match sounds?
Open a match in Match Live and press Sounds on. You hear the whistle at kick-off, fouls, cards, half-time and full time, and the crowd at a goal, each named in a banner at the top. Sounds play only on Match Live.
Why does the win probability change during the match?
It is recalculated from the score, the time left, the expected goals so far and red cards, so a goal or a red card moves it straight away.
VIP AI Tips and the model
What is VIP AI Tips?
One card in Match Live for every match: the model’s chances of a home win, a draw and an away win, the most likely scores, goals, cards, the referee, likely scorers and where to watch. It is free for everyone.
How are the probabilities made?
From each team’s goals and expected goals, the Dixon-Coles score model and the Pi-ratings from this season’s results. The Method page has every formula.
Is it advice?
No. The figures are statistical estimates and can be wrong. See the Disclaimers.
Scouting Players Research
What is the Moneyball Score?
A 0 to 100 rating of a player against players of his own position in Europe’s top five leagues, per 90 minutes, with players of few minutes pulled toward their last season and their position’s average.
What does the one-season wonder check mean?
A warning beside a player whose great season may not last: a sudden jump in score, finishing far above his chances, or a sharp fall.
How do I try a player in my team?
In the Club Portal, Team, Squad on the pitch: search any player in Try a signing and drag him onto a position, or tap him and then the position.
Stats Centre
What is in the Stats Centre?
Tables, club pages and player statistics for Europe’s top five leagues and the Champions, Europa and Conference League: form, home and away tables, xG, the latest line-up in the formation it played, fixtures and every player’s season.
What do xG and the Pressure Index mean?
Expected goals (xG) is how many goals a side’s chances were worth, from the quality of each shot. The Pressure Index shows which side was on top, minute by minute. Both tell more about a match than the score alone.
Why does a player have a score at several positions?
Like a football manager’s squad screen, a player is scored at every position he has played: a position he plays often is natural, one he has played now and then scores less, and one he has never played is left off his map. Kimmich, for one, is at home at right-back, centre-back and in midfield.
How often are the statistics updated?
Every hour, and the scores in Match Live every few seconds while matches are being played.
Club Portal
How does a club get access?
A club licence is set up by Moneyball. Staff sign in with Google or their email, enter the club code and the club’s passphrase.
Who can see our shortlists and reports?
Only your club’s staff. Everything is encrypted in the browser with the club’s passphrase before it is saved.
How do I add staff or change roles?
An administrator opens Users and roles on the portal’s Home page.

How do I join?

How do I sign in?

Comments and live chat
How do I report a comment?

The Android app
Is the app different from the website?
The app is the website made for a phone: the same Match Live, scores and analysis, with a tab bar and a calendar.
Do sounds keep playing outside the app?
Yes. Open a match in Match Live and press Sounds on: when you leave the app, the score stays in the phone’s notifications, as a music app does, and every goal, card, VAR decision, foul, offside, half-time and full time arrives as a notification at the top of the screen, in your language, even with the app closed. Tap it to go back to the match.
How do I see the tour of the app again?
Open Settings and tap Take the tour.
Can I turn off the question before the app closes?
Yes: in Settings, turn off Ask before closing the app. Back on Matches then closes the app at once.
How do I rate the app?
In Settings, tap Rate the app: Google Play opens on the Moneyball page.
