SofaScore is an excellent live score and match statistics app — one of the best for following football in real time. KiqIQ is built for a different purpose: turning statistics into analytical frameworks, probability models, and structured decisions.

SofaScore is a genuinely excellent product for its intended purpose. If you want to follow live matches across 1,000+ competitions, track player ratings, or get push notifications when a goal is scored, it does all of that better than KiqIQ. It is a real-time data layer.
The gap between SofaScore and KiqIQ is the gap between data and analysis. SofaScore tells you that Team A has 1.6 xG and Team B has 0.9 xG this season. KiqIQ's Poisson calculator takes those inputs and converts them into scoreline probability distributions — telling you the probability that Team A wins 2-1, how likely BTTS is, and what a fair price for the Over 2.5 market should be. That is a different tool for a different purpose.
The bet tracker closes the loop. Rather than just collecting data and running models, you log each bet, track your closing line value, and see whether your analytical process is actually generating long-run edge. SofaScore cannot tell you that. KiqIQ can.
For many users, both tools are complementary: SofaScore for real-time data collection, KiqIQ for the analytical framework that turns that data into structured decisions.
Poisson Model
Turn raw xG and attack/defence stats into probability distributions — not just scores on a screen.
Kelly Criterion

Fair Odds Calculator
Strip bookmaker margin and see whether the price offered reflects the true implied probability.
Value Betting Framework
SofaScore gives you data. KiqIQ explains the structured thinking behind turning data into edge.
