## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability footballpulse-match-preview-7084a347
```

Example prompt: Can you pull up a full match preview for the Arsenal vs Chelsea game this Saturday — give me the form, H2H, injuries, xG comparison, key battles, the predicted score, and what the primary bet should be?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need a holistic pre-match intelligence package for a single football fixture, especially when the goal is to inform a betting decision. It combines form, H2H, xG, injuries, and a primary bet call in one call, saving multiple separate data lookups. Prefer this over the value bets or Asian handicap endpoints when you want a narrative match preview rather than pure market-edge analysis.

## Known failure modes

- Match not found or fixture ID invalid — returns 404 or error response
- Match data not yet available for future fixtures too far out — incomplete or empty fields
- Injury or lineup data unavailable close to kickoff — partial response
- API rate limit or payment failure — 402 or 429 error
- Unsupported league or competition — no data returned

## How this service works

Match preview — form, H2H, injuries, xG comparison, key battles, predicted score and the primary bet. For football betting agents.

## Output

A structured match preview report covering recent form for both teams, historical head-to-head record, current injury/availability news, expected goals (xG) comparison, key tactical and player battles, a predicted final score, and a single primary bet recommendation with supporting rationale.
