I believe the importance of using stats to enhance soccer betting is 100% beneficial for both beginners and experts. But are there any metrics more valuable than others? Well, league tables, goal statistics, possession, shot accuracy are some of the most useful ones.
This type of data highlights a better understanding of the opponent's strength and weakness. I think there are more details to consider, of course, and they vary to each player's strategy
Very interesting for us to review, but for me personally football is not just about data and statistics. true, data and statistics really help us when researching and analyzing to predict a match. and I'm pretty sure, you and I will agree that there are no exact metrics or calculations about sports predictions. every time we are going to make a bet, as usual we will look for all the latest information whatever it is related to the two teams that will compete. every research effort, analysis, is part of minimizing defeat. although, there is no guarantee for that. but we know all that is important, especially involving knowledge and insight. then, we will accumulate the results and try to compare to see each potential and ratio. thus, I have an idea of the options related to the bets that I will choose. unfortunately, football is unique and the results are difficult for us to predict accurately. I mean, in sports or football the results of the match will be determined by both teams when playing their match. no matter how strong the team is, they will not always consistently win every match. for me, this is where our analysis is needed.
However, I wonder if the personal/professional lives and details (of soccer players), such as lawsuits, scandals, fights between teammates, absences from training, etc. can also be a source of data to make a more informed prediction? If yes, how can I collect this news daily?
This is also interesting, but usually not very effective or in other words we will not see it as a reference in predicting. as far as I understand, usually players who are having problems whatever it is, the club or team will not play them before it is resolved. we have many examples if we want to review it, but it is not too important for me personally.
