How to Find Average Goal Time Statistics in Football Fast

Average goal time is undoubtedly the most important statistic for in-play football trading and betting.

Unlike other metrics like individual goal times and average goals per game, it gives us a clear indication of when a team is likely to turn on the offensive pressure. Better still, you can find these averages for home or away performances on a team-by-team basis.

Infogol is the only place I’ve seen such detail on this statistic so-far. So in this article, I’m going to show you how you can pin-point teams average goal time with precision.

Just following along step-by-step…

Average Goal Time Distribution

Goal time distribution is broken down into 6 segments, 15 minutes per-segment. This is useful when you consider early-season data. It could be that, a large portion of goals have been scored in one’s segment distorting the overall average goal time.

You can sort distribution between the team’s goal time scored or conceded, just tap the dropdown arrow highlighted in the image above.
