    Lower League Analyst analyses every upcoming fixture across the Championship, League One, League Two, and the National League. For each match, a team strength rating built from every league result since 2024 produces a conviction score out of 10, and eight factors are shown as the evidence - so you can see exactly why each match is ranked the way it is, and understand every fixture in minutes rather than hours.

    LETTERS TO THE ANALYST

    “Saves me hours every week. The breakdowns are clear and the conviction scoring makes it easy to see where the data lines up strongest.”

    What is Lower League Analyst?

    Lower League Analyst is a football analysis platform that covers every fixture across the Championship, League One, League Two, and the National League. We break down each match across eight key factors including form, xG, head-to-head, injuries, and more so you can understand every game without hours of research.

    Which leagues do you cover?

    We cover the Championship, League One, League Two, and the National League - four leagues, 60+ fixtures every matchday. We focus on the lower leagues because they're under-analysed, meaning there's more insight to uncover.

    How does the analysis work?

    Every fixture is processed through our model which examines league position, recent form, home/away records, head-to-head records, goals scored and conceded, xG and shot data, injuries and suspensions, and fixture difficulty. Each match receives a conviction score out of 10.

    How does the free trial work?

    You get full access to every feature for 14 days, no card required. Just sign up with your email or Google account. If you like it, you can subscribe from £12/month at the end of your trial.

    Can I cancel anytime?

    Absolutely. There are no contracts or commitments. You can cancel your subscription at any time from your account page and you'll retain access until the end of your current period.

    How much does it cost?

    After your 14-day free trial, plans start at £12/month or £99/year (saving 31%). No hidden fees, no card required to start your trial.
