Cruzeiro have become the latest Brazilian Serie A club to sign up for StatsBomb’s contextual event data and customisable analysis platform, StatsBomb IQ.
As part of the agreement, the four-time Brazilian champions will gain access to StatsBomb's core data product, which features 3,400+ events per match across 140+ global competitions, and includes unique metrics such as shot impact height. The club will also benefit from advanced models such as xPass and On-Ball Value (OBV) which provide relevant and high-quality information to decision makers.
Furthermore, the club will have access to StatsBomb IQ, the advanced analysis and scouting platform, allowing them to improve and streamline their processes around player recruitment, opposition analysis, and internal performance tracking. The integration of StatsBomb's IQ analytics platform will improve the club's ability to visualise key aspects of performance such as set-piece design, pass networks, and shot maps.
Speaking About The Partnership, Alexander Taylor, Soccer Sales Manager, StatsBomb, said:
“We are delighted to be working with Cruzeiro and adding them to our customer base. The addition of the four time Brazilian champions continues our growth in Brazil and the wider LATAM market.
After visiting the club in person earlier this year, I was able to see first hand how they planned to leverage our products to their advantage and experience their overall enthusiasm for creating data-driven processes.
By leveraging our advanced data and customisable IQ platform, Cruzeiro will gain deeper insights for their analysis departments and a competitive edge for their scouting workflows. We're confident that our tools will play a crucial role in their continued success on the field.”
