Football fans are longing for more and more insights – Enetpulse xG help going beyond the average analysis.
The world of football data is constantly evolving, and you can trust us to have our eyes on the ball when it comes to the latest trends. We’re ready to introduce our brand new Expected Goals (xG) feature into our portfolio, allowing users to dive a step deeper into football matches. With xG, you can add a new level of depth to your coverage that gives nuance to the live scores and final results of the matches.
xG is a statistical metric that goes beyond the traditional scores by measuring the probability of a shot resulting in a goal, giving an invaluable insight into a team’s attacking efficiency. With this feature you can expand on the story that is playing out on the field by giving context to how well a team or player is performing based on event data points that take metrics into account such as limb used, shot distance, and whether it was from open play or set play – and many more.
With this insight, you will be able to identify patterns and create data-driven commentary based on expected scoring outcomes to captivate your audience and give them the possibility to analyze offensive strategies.
Our xG feature is introduced on both team levels as part of our live event statistics and on the player level, highlighting the specifics of an individual player’s xG.
Don’t hesitate to reach out to get this feature, and we will make a customized offer for you so you can engage your audience.
What makes the Monaco race so interesting?
Monaco is the race that makes Formula 1 feel like a different sport. The streets are narrow, the margins are tiny, and the weekend builds like a thriller: practice hints, qualifying pressure, then a race where positioning and timing can matter as much as outright speed.
That’s why Monaco doesn’t just create highlight moments. It creates attention. Fans don’t drop in only for the finish line flag. They follow the weekend session by session, checking what’s coming up, what just happened, and how it changes the bigger picture.
A random fact: At around 3.337 km, Monaco is the shortest circuit on the F1 calendar. Maybe that’s what makes it so interesting?
Across the sports ecosystem, the same “public” reality is tracked again and again: competitions, games, teams, players, and venues. But the way these entities are identified varies from system to system, which creates repeated mapping work, unnecessary complexity, and avoidable data errors.
Today, Enetpulse and SportsDataIO are launching SportsDataExchange (SDX) to change that; a free, open set of identifiers built to help the entire sports technology ecosystem align around one shared standard.
In the 109-year history of the Giro d’Italia, the 2026 race start in Bulgaria will represent something genuinely new. For the first time, a Grand Tour will begin in Eastern Europe. The Bulgarian start marks a true expansion of cycling’s reach, bringing the sport to new audiences and landscapes. The opening stages of this year’s Giro will take the race through some of the biggest Bulgarian cities, like Nessebar, Burgas, Plovdiv, and Sofia. All cities that are familiar to our employees.
Enetpulse has an office in Sofia, so the Giro passing through the capital also matters to us. Our local team works close to where the race takes place, and is actually able to watch the peloton ride through the streets of Sofia from their desks.
Organizers have set the Bulgaria stages for 8-10 May 2026. After the opening weekend, the Giro continues into Italy for the rest of the race.
