RefStats is a soccer statistical analysis platform that organizes and displays information about referees and teams to help with understanding matches.

We collect public data and present it in a visual and intuitive way, including: referee card and foul averages, team performance, comparative charts, and more.

Yes! RefStats is completely free. We maintain the project through voluntary donations from users who wish to support our work.

No! RefStats is NOT a betting house and does not encourage betting. We are an information and statistics site.

We provide data for informational purposes only. How you use this information is your sole responsibility.

On the "TODAY'S MATCHES" page, use the search bar to find matches by:

• Team name: Type "Flamengo" or "Real Madrid"
• Referee name: Type the referee's name
• League: Type "Premier League" or "La Liga"

Use the navigation buttons to move between found results.

Referees are classified into three profiles based on their history:

• 🔴 Strict: High average of cards per game
• 🟡 Moderate: Balanced average of cards
• 🟢 Lenient: Low average of cards

You can filter matches by clicking the profile buttons in the search bar.

Click on "HISTORY" in the menu. You'll see a calendar where you can select any date with available matches.

Days with available analyses appear marked in green with the "MATCH DAY" indication.

The chart shows a visual comparison between:

• Referee average: Average number of yellow cards the referee gives per game
• Team averages: Average number of cards each team receives per game

This helps quickly visualize if the match tends to have more or fewer cards.

Data is collected mainly from SofaScore, WhoScored, FlashScore, and other public sports statistics platforms.

We process and organize this data to present it in a more visual and intuitive way.

We strive to provide accurate data, but we do not guarantee absolute accuracy. Errors or outdated information may exist.

We always recommend verifying information from multiple sources before making decisions.

Analyses are generated daily for the day's matches. The referee's history considers their most recent games available in the database.

This can happen when:

• The referee has not yet been confirmed for the match
• It's a new referee with little history
• Data is not available from the source

In these cases, we show only available team information.
