In-depth Player and Team Statistics supplied by Opta
Get access to the most comprehensive statistics available to aid your analysis of players and teams. We plan to produce tables of sortable data will be built specifically with Fantasy Football Managers in mind, breaking down players by position and handing you statistics to measure Fantasy returns, Distribution and Influence, Goal Threat, Defending and Set Piece Involvement. You’ll also be able to assess player discipline and analyse each Premier League club using the same stats which include specific team data.
Statistics are supplied by the renowned Opta team who painstakingly measure every kick, tackle and pass made in the Premier League. Opta supply their data to Premier League managers and now we are looking to make this data available to you to aid your Fantasy Football selections. Updated statistics will be available to members just minutes after the final game and in pre-season you’ll be able to access last season’s data to help in your initial squad selection.
