Why FootballStack

Football data without the cleanup work.

Built around the details that consume engineering time: entity mapping, inconsistent schemas and repeated joins.

Stable IDs

Deterministic team, competition and match identifiers across the supported datasets.

Predictable JSON

One response shape, explicit nulls and typed errors across current and archived data.

Context included

Derived form, Elo, rest days, table position and head-to-head in one match request.

Signature endpoint

One request. Useful match context.

FootballStack derives recent form, an Elo-style rating, rest, table position, venue record and head-to-head from the available match history.
