The premier league, which is providing both finalists in this year’s UEFA Champions League final in Istanbul, will be providing in-match statistics starting from premier league season 2021-22.

The supplier said its data analytics and machine learning technologies would deliver “ground-breaking statistics in real time to a global audience of billions each season”.

Premier League chief executive, Richard Masters, said: “We are always looking at new ways to bring the Premier League to life and enhance the analysis of the competition. Oracle is a global brand with a great track record of driving innovation, and we look forward to working together to bring new levels of engagement to fans around the world.”

Ariel Kelman, Oracle’s chief marketing officer, said: “Combining Oracle’s machine learning expertise with the Premier League’s wealth of football data is a significant merger of technology and sport.

“The margins for error in the Premier League are very small, so the data is crucial to discovering the meaningful moments and stories of each match. It’s those stories that unite fans and ignite their passions for the game.”

Oracle said supporters will be able to access match information instantly, whether watching from home or on mobile devices. Statistics will be broadcast across the premier league’s own social channels. Among the “match insights” promised are:

Momentum tracker: This is said to work out the likelihood of the team in possession scoring a goal in the next 10 seconds. The results are based on data from thousands of historical games and the last five events in the current possession.

Live win probability: This calculates the chance of a team getting a win or a draw by simulating the remainder of the match 100,000 times. This model, based on four years of match data, takes into account if a team is at home or away, current score, penalties awarded, players on the pitch, red cards, and time left in the match.

Average formation: This tracks the positions of all players when their team is in and out of possession.  The model highlights differences in how teams organize themselves when attacking and defending.
