About PredictXI

Independent football analytics · Built and operated in Nigeria

PredictXI is an independent, data-driven football statistics service. We turn public historical match data into clear, honest probabilities for upcoming fixtures — win/draw/loss odds, expected goals and likely scorelines — and we publish how our model actually performs so you can judge it for yourself.

What we do

For each upcoming match we publish a calibrated forecast: the chance of a home win, draw or away win, the expected goals for each side, and the most probable exact scorelines. Where our model's probability differs from the bookmaker's implied odds, we highlight it as a value signal. Everything is an estimate produced by a statistical model — nothing more, nothing less.

How the model works

PredictXI is built on a Dixon-Coles Poisson model — a well-established statistical method in football analytics. It estimates each team's attacking and defensive strength from their recent results, weighted so that recent form counts for more than older matches, and blends this with market information to produce calibrated probabilities. We train and test it using only data that would have been available before each match kicked off (a walk-forward backtest), and we publish the results, including where the model trails the bookmaker. Our match data comes from football-data.co.uk.

What PredictXI is

PredictXI is an educational and analytical tool. We publish statistical models, probabilities and openly-graded results so you can understand football data better. That is the whole product.

What PredictXI is not

Predictions are statistical estimates, not certainties, and carry no guarantee of accuracy or profit. PredictXI is for information and entertainment only. It is intended for adults aged 18 and over. If gambling is affecting you or someone you know, please seek support from a responsible-gambling organisation in your country.

Installing & removing the app

PredictXI is a website. If you like, you can also install it as an app (a Progressive Web App) so it opens from your home screen. This is entirely optional and handled by your browser — we never download or install anything without you choosing to, and there is no separate program, bundled extra, or system change involved.
