LONDON – August 3, 2016 – STATS LLC, the world’s leading sports technology company, has bolstered its football coverage in collaboration with Prozone Sports, which was acquired by STATS in May 2015. STATS now provides the most in-match data points live, while maintaining the highest level of accuracy, to clubs and media with its new Tier 6+ data.
STATS Tier 6+ data is supported by the newly appointed EMEA Research & Editorial team providing clubs and media with the most in depth and accurate football match coverage. Using STATS proficiency in live data collection and Prozone’s football subject matter expertise, Tier 6+ data allows team analysts to interact with live data through a variety of viewing platforms either through the STATS API or simple XML feeds.
