About DataGaffer

DataGaffer is an independent football analytics platform built around realistic match simulations, advanced team ratings, and data-driven betting insights across global leagues and competitions.

Unlike simple prediction sites, DataGaffer models each match using underlying performance data — like goals, shots, xG, pace, defensive strength, league difficulty, home advantage, matchup dynamics, etc. The goal is not just to predict outcomes, but to measure how a game is likely to be played using pure analytics.

Projections and simulations are updated regularly using recent matches, evolving team strength, and opponent-adjusted data — so ratings and outlooks reflect current form rather than outdated reputation.

How Our Models Work

DataGaffer simulations are built on thousands of matchup-based calculations per fixture. Each game is evaluated using team-specific data such as:

These inputs feed into proprietary rating systems including Offensive Rating, Defensive Rating, Pace Rating, and overall team strength. From there, simulations generate probabilities for key markets such as match outcomes, goal totals, BTTS, team totals, player performance, and more.

Instead of offering generic predictions, DataGaffer focuses on identifying:

The platform is designed for users who want deeper insight into why a game projects the way it does — not just a surface-level pick.
