Stats helpdesk

A direct hotline to Opta's team of experts

Sport never stands still and the narrative is always changing.  Many of our clients are fighting against tight deadlines to construct the best possible match previews and post-match reports.

Opta offers a service in which media clients can contact the team directly, via phone, email, live-chat or our innovative Live Monitor service.  This allows them to ask questions, submit requests and have our team of experts interrogate our database on their behalf.

Saving you time, money & hassle

Our team will know what is interesting to sports fans - before, during and after a game.  We can highlight interesting stats, facts and milestones to supplement your coverage, as well as responding to questions as and when they arise.

Pre-game, live or post-match

Our database updates in real-time, meaning our team always has the most up-to-date information to hand.  If a milestone is reached, or something out of the ordinary happens across all of the sports we cover, we'll be the first to highlight this to our media customers.

Our expert editorial team at work

Our expert editorial members can provide greater context to our data.

They are able to provide live statistical updates and respond immediately to in-game events.
