**Expected lineups** is a premium data feature, delivering early predictions on team setups **before kick-off**. It provides valuable predictions into starting elevens and benched players for each fixture.

These predictions are generated using a blend of factors, including:

* 🚑 Injuries and suspensions
* 📊 Recent player form and performance
* 🧩 Tactical trends and team selection history
* 📝 News and rumours 

{% hint style="warning" %}
⚠️ While these lineups are not official or guaranteed, they offer crucial early insight into how teams are likely to line up. Perfect for analysts, fantasy players, and bettors.
