What Football Hub Is

Everything Football Hub Does, Pointed At The Scottish Cup.

Football Hub puts a ridiculous amount of football data under one roof: ten seasons of stats, live matches, predictions and bookmaker prices for 22 leagues, 14 cups and 9 international competitions. Cheatsheets spot the patterns that keep repeating, and The Analyst, an AI that has read all of it, does the digging when you ask it a question. Here is what that means for the Scottish Cup.

Every Round To The Final. From the early rounds to the semi-finals and final at Hampden Park, every tie the feed carries is in the app, with lineups, events and ratings.

Mismatches Measured. Seven seasons of ties between clubs from different divisions make the upsets, and the goal-fests, measurable.

Team Sheets And Ratings. Lineups the moment they land, every event in the timeline and a rating for every player who played.

Best Prices. The bookmakers price Scottish Cup ties, and the app shows the best price for each market across the bookmakers.

The Match Centre

Every Scottish Cup Tie, Taken Apart.

Both team sheets on the pitch in their formations the moment they are confirmed, a timeline of goals, cards and substitutions, the statistics and a rating for every player, live and long after the final whistle. Ask The Analyst, the AI that has read every match in Football Hub, about any tie and it reads all of this before it answers.

Questions

Questions About The Scottish Cup.

The ones people ask before they sign up. Anything else, send us a message.

How Are Scottish Cup Ties Settled?

On the day. A tie level after 90 minutes goes to extra time and then penalties, so there are no replays and very few draws in the record: just 10% of ties on record ended level after 90 minutes.

When Do Premiership Clubs Enter The Scottish Cup?

The twelve Premiership clubs, along with the Championship’s, join in the fourth round in January. The earlier rounds belong to the lower leagues and the non-league clubs.

How Many Scottish Cup Matches Does Football Hub Hold?

884 finished ties across eight seasons, from 2019/20 to now, involving 145 different clubs, each with lineups, events and statistics where the feed provides them.

Why Is The Scottish Cup So High Scoring?
