Alright, the next stop is Oxford away. After the madness of 5 at Derby and then 7 against QPR, confidence is high (excluding the Millwall result) I’ve put together a full preview looking at both sides: line-ups, tactics, key players and of course a score prediction at the end. Oxford haven’t...

I’m hoping I can cover previews of all league games this season so hopefully I can keep you in the loop!

Just put together a preview for this weekend at the CBS. Quick look at what carries over from Derby, how QPR set up under Julien Stéphan, where we might find joy, and a few players to watch. Prediction is a cautious 2–1 Cov, but keen to hear other views. If you’ve got a few minutes, give it a...

This game felt the opposite of last week where we were in control but not getting a result. I think Lampard will be thrilled with the result but not best pleased with how that played out. That said, historically against physical teams like that where it’s a scrappy game, we’ve been 2nd best. Top...

Hamer… wow

Going for a city win here 2-1. Derby are struggling to create chances (albeit still able to score) I’d expect us to control the game. Simms is well suited to this game, certainly a player to watch. I’ve done an analysis on the game if anyone wants to waste 10 mins…

Selling Rudoni now would be a major disappointment. Key player last season and got better with every game. Unlikely to be a one season wonder with the kind of progression under Lampard. We’ve already started the season and to pull a major player (that you’ve not planned for on replacement) would...

Alright, just finished putting together the preview for Saturday's trip to pride park. An insight into how the game may playout, key players and a final prediction. Currently on 1/1 for results, the prediction this week is an away win I'm hoping it will come through. If you have a spare few...

The lineup will hint a few things… Injuries - if Wright, EMC, Sheaf and Rudoni have knocks/injuries they’re out. Radar players - Simms not getting competitive start for so long. Bassette if he’s off he won’t feature. Can possibly choose the squad from who’s not there? Rushworth KKH, Thomas...

I’ve been impressed with Brum. Good energy levels, great press. That said… so much space to counter press, Brum are wide open! I’d imagine McKenna will be livid, calm the players down string a pass together and they’ll be through. Clarke and Matusiwa you’d be thinking about taking off pretty...

Done a quick match preview looking at both sides... If any of you are are bit too excited and want to waste 10 mins of your life...

Dasilva masterclass incoming 👀 I do actually fancy him to have a solid game. We are notoriously slow starters however Lampard has broken the Swansea and Preston curse from last season so you never know!

Alright here we go... first game of the season is here! I’ve put together a pre-match preview with thoughts on both teams, key battles and predictions. Let me know your thoughts, what’s your score predictions?

Something a touch different and covering all teams in the Championship, diving into the nitty gritty of building a match prediction model - using team and player data to help determine the end of the season result (pre-season transfers factored in). The model was built with a focus on playstyles...

Thanks 🙏 I’m working on a full season model that I’ll drop as a prediction before the season starts. It’s incorporating playstyles + new player signings for each team so it should offer some good insights. As and when we sign players I’ll look to post too! I’m hoping to be as consistent as...

Excluding Jamie Paterson. Low vs high would be interesting.

Back again with another video - this time diving into our striker situation. There’s been a lot of chat about whether we need to bring someone in, but I’ve taken a step back to look at what we’ve already got in Simms, Wright, Thomas-Asante and Bassette. I break down their playstyles, strengths...

Few things to note, Monaco finished top 3 in the league only behind Marseille and PSG. They finished 17th in champions league table ahead of Man City and Juve. They’re a good team… albeit a weakened lineup, they’re still a slick operation. Positives are Grimes and Sheaf had moments of good...

WhoScored scraped for each game + Sofascore for other data - python to generate maps/data analysis then overlaid/simplified into a bit more consumable content

Just wanted to share my first video under the 'Match Plot' banner. It’s a quick look at Frank Lampard’s time at Coventry so far, including some early signs of how he sets us up tactically, plus a few thoughts on areas we might look to strengthen in the transfer window. I know it’s a quiet...
