Liga MX, the governing body of the premier competitions in Mexican soccer, has formed an exclusive data, streaming and integrity partnership with market leader, Genius Sports Group.
As the official data partner to the English Premier League, Serie A, the Argentine Football Association, and Dimayor Colombia, Genius Sports Group will have the exclusive right across all Liga MX, Liga de Expansion, Copa MX and Liga BBVA Femenil games to capture live data from in-stadia and distribute it to licensed sportsbook operators in the US and around the world.

Genius Sports Groupâs Bet Monitoring System will underpin a new integrity program to safeguard Mexican soccer from the threats of match-fixing and betting-related corruption. By cross-referencing odds movements from sportsbooks around the world with predictive models, which demonstrate expected market activity, Genius Sports Groupâs system will automatically flag any potentially suspicious activity.
Enrique Bonilla, Executive President of LIGA MX, commented: âOur league grows in every aspect, development, innovation and the expansion of our international profile are our fundamental pillars. This alliance with Genius Sports Group will help us reach, through data, more fans around the world. It is important to highlight that Genius Sports Groupâs integrity program will provide real-time alerts for betting-related issues, which strengthens our commitment to transparency.â
Sean Conroy, Commercial Director of Genius Sports Group, said: âAs one of the highest quality, most passionately followed leagues in world soccer, we are delighted to be supporting Liga MX at such critical stage of its global growth.

Northern Super League Partners with Stats Perform

Â
Stats Perform, the global leader in sports AI, data and technology, has announced an official data partnership with the Northern Super League (NSL). The partnership will allow world-leading Opta data to be collected live from every NSL league game for the next three years.
Beginning this month, the Northern Super League (NSL) establishes a new era in Canadian sport as the countryâs first professional domestic womenâs soccer league â an ambitious and transformative initiative co-founded by former Canadian international and Olympic medallist Diana Matheson. Its inaugural season kicks off on April 16 and will feature six teams who have assembled multinational player rosters with extensive club and international experience, including 100-cap Canadian internationals Desiree Scott and Quinn.
Once the action begins, detailed data from every on-ball event, including advanced AI-powered Opta Analytics metrics such as Expected Goals (xG) and Expected Assists (xA), will be captured and distributed via feeds and Stats Perform products, including OptaAI Studio. This will enable various broadcasters, publishers and rights holders to generate stories and insights throughout the NSL season and provide them straight to the leagueâs fans in real time.
As part of the agreement, the NSLâs League Office and every NSL club will also have access to Opta Search, part of OptaAI Studio. This will allow their content creators to leverage all Opta data collected during the NSL season in the creation of data-led stories on the stand-out performers, and will help them generate key talking points for publication on official league and club platforms. Opta Search will also empower the NSLâs media team to create a range of data visualizations, including player shot maps and touch maps, to visually illustrate the impact of different playersâ on-field performances.
Christina Litz, NSL President, said: âWe are thrilled to have Stats Perform on board as our official data partner. When we talk about detailed performance data in soccer, Opta is the gold standard, so we are delighted to have it powering each of our official digital channels. As the season progresses, we want to put the spotlight on all the on-field heroes who emerge and having access to world-class data will help us tell their stories and inspire a new generation of Canadian soccer fans.â
Steve Xeller, Chief Revenue Officer at Stats Perform, said: âStats Perform has been a huge supporter of expansion leagues around the world, so we are very pleased to be partnering with NSL in the lead-up to their first domestic campaign. Seeing a fully professional womenâs soccer league launch in Canada is an incredibly exciting development for the sport in North America and we see considerable potential in working proactively with the Leagueâs Head Office to help the competition grow, using the power of AI and data-led storytelling to build fan communities across the continent.â
