Stats Perform and top Polish football league extend data partnership
Stats Perform has extended its partnership with Poland’s top-flight football league, PKO BP Ekstraklasa.
Under a new agreement, clubs will continue to receive data from Opta, including live feeds from every match.
However, during 2022-23, the league’s use of this data will expand “significantly,” said Stats Perform.
Alongside sharing insights with fans on social media, Opta data will power engagement tools, such as the league’s official app, Ekstraklasa.org website and the Lotto Fantasy Ekstraklasa game.
“We are fully aware that today’s fan needs professional data on their favourite games,” said Marcin Animucki, President of Ekstraklasa SA.
He added: “We also perfectly understand the need of journalists who use our statistics while analysing meetings.
“Thus, we provide world-class tools for analysing and tracking PKO BP Ekstraklasa games. This is an important part of our strategy to develop the league in the digital area.”
The league’s media team will have access to Stats Perform’s latest AI innovations in PressBox Live. Meanwhile, coaching staff across Poland’s 18 top-tier clubs will be able to use ProPortal, Stats Perform’s “live-in game performance insights tool.”
Alex Rice, Stats Perform Chief Rights Officer, said: “We are passionate about helping leagues deliver new and innovative ways of telling the stories that matter, through the intelligent application of world-class Opta data.
“We are also pleased to be able to provide additional Pro support to every Polish top-flight team through ProPortal, which provides their technical staff with another source of live data to identify trends and influence their in-game decision-making.”
