how accurate are these just on la piedad v toros home team shows 46 shots 16 on target but they failed to score.The away team had 3 attempts 2 on target and they scored 1 goal,seems unlikely to me.

I am wondering are they inaccurate with their stats.

In 70% of the games they are accurate, although the stats say nothing about the quality of the shoots etc, this is important because there are some leagues (te Ecuador) where the players like to shoot from 40 meters way to often (these shoots shouldnt count in the stats imo)

In a small number of games (I would say 1-5%) the stats are the other way around or totally wrong.

In another 25-30% there are shoots that dont count, or count double-treble etc (technical glitch?), this is what could have happened in the mexico game.

Dont bet big amount of money based on the stats, try to find a stream, its the best way to have a picture of the game.

I see,the markets seemed to contradict the stats in this game, there were also a lot of corners 13 i think,yet odds on second goal suggested that it wouldn't happen.....and it didn't Sad

my favourite last night was when there were more dangerous attacks than attacks for the home team.  By a considerable margin too.  Cna't remember the team in quesiton

teo is spot on.

You should only ever use them to give you a general impression of how things are going in a game, don't rely on them totally. I've seen games covered by 365 and by Hills which have shown completely different shot stats of the same game.

And if you follow a game live on tv but also vis 365 you'll notice that a dangerous attack can simply be a midfielder having the ball 40 yards from goal with absolutely no threat to goal whatsoever.

Colombia (as well as Ecuador as teo said) is a good example of when to ignore the stats as sides also shoot high and wide from 40 yards yet it counts as a shot.
