Your support helps us to tell the story

From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

This week on the Indy Football Podcast Jack Pitt-Brooke, Jonathan Liew and Luke Brown are joined by Rory Campbell, owner of C&N Sporting Risk, which provides data analysis and predictive modelling, and consulting for football clubs and sports betting organisations and other companies in the sporting industry.

They discuss the insights that data analysis provides and what it tells us about Tottenham’s improvement, Mohamed Salah’s brilliant season and why Burnley keep surprising people. Is Jurgen Klopp a high variance coach? Will football men and analysts ever understand each other? And who’s going to win the World Cup?
