Six steps through a match page
Open a match
Every match in Pro Finder opens its own page. The pictures follow one upcoming match.
In Pro Finder, tap Scheduled (1) to keep the matches that have not started, then tap a match (2). 
The page has three tabs: Overview (1), Intelligence (2) and Stats (3). The row under them (4) has one tab per market: 1x2, Over/Under, BTTS, Handicaps, Corners and Cards. Read the Overview
Overview opens first. Scroll down for the two teams side by side: their form, how often their matches went over 2.5 goals or had both teams score, and how their goals compare with their chances.
Form & Streaks (1) compares the two teams. Overall (2) blends current form (Hype) with Long Term Quality. 
Betting Trends shows each team’s win rate, Over 2.5 and BTTS. All (1) counts every match. By Venue (2) counts only the home team’s home matches and the away team’s away matches. 
xG vs real goals (1) is Pro. Choose a team (2) to see its goals next to the chances behind them, xG, and the goals it conceded next to the chances it allowed, xGA (3). Find the head to head
Recent Matches, on the Overview, lists each team’s latest matches with the odds before kick-off and the result. Head to head has no tab of its own: the two teams’ meetings are at the end of this card.
At the top of Recent Matches, switch team to see the other side’s matches. At the end of the card, Head to Head · 365 days (1) counts the two teams’ wins and draws against each other over the last year (2), with each meeting below. Set the scope on the Stats tab
The Stats tab compares the two teams card by card: goals, defence, xG, shots, corners, cards and more. Analysis scope sets which matches every card counts. Changing it is Pro; without Pro the tab shows the match’s default.
Tap Stats (1), then Analysis scope (2). Period (3) sets how many matches count, from the last 3 to the whole season. Side (4) counts all matches, only home or only away matches, or H/A: the home team at home and the away team away. Comp and Match choose the competitions and the full match or one half. A changed setting is marked on the bar and on each card that uses it; Reset puts the match’s default back. Open a market tab
Each market has its own tab, here Over/Under. Below Odds & Probability come Goals Trends, Recent Matches and Odds Analysis. The market tabs are Pro.
Tap Over/Under (1). Odds & Probability gives each number of goals a percentage, for the full match or one half (2). Tap a line (3) for its Over and Under percentages, with the fair odds worked out from them next to the actual odds. Jump through Intelligence
Intelligence puts the match’s whole report on one page: a preview, the markets, form and facts, the match context and the community’s view. The full report is Pro.
Tap Intelligence. Under the briefing, the chips (1) jump to each part: At a glance, Markets, Form & facts, Match context and Community. Tap Form & facts (2). 
Form & facts opens with Statistical angles (1): the numbers furthest from the league average this season. The label (2) says how far, not what will happen. Show all (3) opens every angle.
