Powering the most accurate xG in the industry
StatsBomb's Expected Goals (xG) model uses more contextual events and better quality data than any other provider to accurately measure the quality of chances
Goalkeeper location
Our freeze-frame functionality records the location and stance of the goalkeeper on every shot, materially improving the accuracy of our model
Defender location
The location of all visible defenders and attackers on every shot is also accurately recorded in each freeze-frame
Shot impact height
We record the impact height of every shot, adding further detail and nuance to our model
Post shot xG
Calculated after the shot, taking account of shot placement. Most useful in assessing goalkeeper performance
A unique data spec
Pressure
We are the only data provider that collects accurate pressure at an event level, allowing analysis of how players and teams press as well as how they perform under pressure
On-Ball Value (OBV)

Pass footedness and pass height
Going beyond the start and end location, knowing which foot and what height the pass is played at adds important context and creates a clearer picture of the game being played
