About



Hi! I'm Joshua, the creator of Match Simulator.

This website was made as a hobby project in March of 2019. Since then, it has gotten a lot of interest from people all over the world. In December 2020 I found out that around 30K matches had been simulated, so I decided to take on the project again and try to make it even better.

If you like this project and want to contribute financially, that would be much appreciated! Any contribution helps me a lot and allows me to spend more time working on this project.

Hi all, it's been a while since I have last worked on the website and been active. This has to do with me currently moving to a new house - a process that has taken (and will still take) quite some time. 

I know that you are all eagerly waiting for the 2024/25 season update, this update can only come once the new data is available. Usually, the update is at the end of September or at the beginning of October. I will do my best to make it happen around that time this year as well, so keep an eye out :)

Another frequently requested addition is the new Champions League format. When we opened the BETA in April, I had hoped it would only take about two months to make that the definite release. After that, I would be able to add new features and formats et cetera. So that was all planned for around June/July. But I simply did not have enough time to finish up. So that's the situation now, we have a BETA that is around 70% finished.

The reason that it is difficult to add the new Champions League format now, is that I would have to add it twice basically; once in this main website, and once in the BETA. Of course, all the core functionality could remain the same (even though there would still be a few differences in the BETA), but the look and feel would have to be designed differently. 

I'm not sure what I'm going to do yet. An option is to only add the new format for the BETA, another option is to just refocus on finishing the BETA as soon as possible and add it after it's done - but there's no saying how long this would still take... 

I want to keep you all in the loop as I understand it can get frustrating not hearing any updates so I hope this answers some questions. 

In the meanwhile, I will do my best to use every single spare minute to work on the website and hopefully work towards a release of the BETA.

Thanks for understanding! 

Best, Joshua

Hello so i have mod for the 2024/25 Transfers but for some reason even though i put solanke on tottenham he still plays for bournemouth so hes currently playing for both teams. also I tried a few times to put julian alvarez at atletico madrid but when i search for him he doesnt appear. ive seen that also happen with other palyers?

make sure u dont have another mod that has solanke on bournemouth (or with any other player)

Omari Hutchinson

If this happens I would die happy:

I understand you have plenty to sort out first but in the near future, could you put in mind to have a bigger allowance for teams or a new league format to replicate the new champions league format and possibly when it goes to penalties, have players take them rather then just a number.

i was not expecting this

Is it possible to set default a formation for a team? (Not using the edit line up or squad)

CHECK THE UEFA NATIONS LEAGUE, SAN MARINO ACTUALLY WON

SAN MARINO 1-0 LIECHTENSTEIN

Yes, but I wanted Liechtenstein to win. But and San Marino is team that I want to get in League C

who else remembers the el classico with Antony vs Mudyrk 2008

Is it just me or are there suddenly a lot more ads on the webpages here? 

There are ads? 

I didn't use to have ads either, but for the past 2 weeks my screen is suddenly infested with ads...

As far as I know, Joshua didn't update the ads. 

Ads always have been there.

I was doing Newcastle United vs Manchester City and when Manchester City would be up like 2-0 I restart trying to get Newcastle to win it just does the same results

Of course, you're just running the same simulation over and over. That doens't change the variables.
If you want a different result, you should create a new match.

Ok, thank you.

How do i transfer players?

create your own team

What a thrashing!

All goals scored were own goals lol and califiori scored 2 ogs

I cant see my mod on the public mod section. What should I do to publish my mod?

Do you select NO on the button ,, Private mode ''?

Yes

Reminder: 2024/25 season in MS will come as soon as FC25 releases (September 27th, could be later). Avoid flooding the same question in the comments. Remember to use a mod while waiting. 

Good to hear :) can we also expect the champions league cup format around that time as well?

No idea. Joshua has been busy lately I think, so hopefully he'll add it soon. But we cannot be sure.

When are the 2024/25 squads getting released?

End of september.

11 goals omg=)))

Hi, when u guys make in events new season for example La Liga, Premier league, Serie A, Bundesliga, Ligue 1 and Eredvisie?

After release of FC25, for now you can make your own

Pretty late

Since the creator is busy, the event is delayed. 

Really? not cool. 

No pressure but after BETA is finished can you add more stats like pace, dribbling, physical, etc? Also 100% sure it's a no but can you also add playstyles like FC24? I'm just asking a question nothing forced

Bonjour y aura t il une mise a jour des championnats et equipes pour la saison 2024-2025 ?

oui, après les sorties de FC25, et en anglais s’il te plaît

I told him in French to speak English don't flag me pls

Hey there! I just noticed a glitch that you can't see some countries flag in natch simulator for ex. Turkey and switzerland can you fix this pls it's so annoying

I just created a mod that has the best players not in FC24, From legends including Maradona and Zlatan to Wonderkids Yamal and Endrick:

Edit: Also when i went to look at the 2nd leg of my lille vs liverpool on match simulator and the beta, i noticed that liverpool had 11 shots on target on the regular website but on the beta, they had 9, is that just because the game went to pens or is it just a bug?

 

The format is slightly different then your simulation but the finalists are like this year lol

I know, i was suprised it was the same final from this year lol.

Hi I know nobody cares but: I live in Poland, and I go to a RB Salzburg Dinamo Kyiv play off uefa champions league match in Lublin :]

Cool, also who's your favorite player? Lewandowski?

I like youngs, Havertz and because from FC Barcelona Yamal

who is Youngs? do you mean young players?

Yes young players

cool, I'll try it.

How can I delete my own created public/private mod?

Go to my mods, click on the mod you want, then scroll down and click delete then click yes(make sure your in edit mode) 

Thanks mate

Hi so i've got really good idea i think. Can you guys do ,, Simulate whole (cup&league&group )? If you guys will add this, I will be so happy !

Suggested thousands of times, after BETA and probably as a premium feature 

So can they add it?

Yes, but after BETA is finished, Joshua dosen't know how long that will take

Oh okay

Could you add older years? like 13/14 12/13

Hi Joshua, can you add the option of playing with only one club or national team in cups or in the league because I would like to make something like a manager's career but I don't want to simulate matches of other clubs

That is good idea

I have several proposals:

1: Add more years
I think that, for example, being with Guardiola's Barca, Mourinho's Madrid or Klop's Dortmund would be very good.

2: More teams
There is a game for mobile phones called World Soccer Champs that has more than 100 leagues and if you don't know what measures to put in that game, they are all there, you could put more divisions and more leagues, not just the ones in FIFA

3: that at the end of each cup trophies are given, the golden boot, the golden glove and the golden ball for example

Hi, can you add stars? for example Real Madrid 5 stars or UCD Dublin 0,5 stars

I guess it can be interesting

UCD Dublin would probably be more like 0.1 stars honestly

It goes up by 0.5 stars based on team quality from 0.5 - 5

No need to post your idea multiple times.

I know but nobody asked me

You mean answered, right?

Yes, just admin & moderator do not say Yes & No

Does anyone know when the EPL 2024/25 season will come?

Once FC25 is a officially released 

Coming soon... (and yes its related to MS)

so all these countries will be available in Match Simulator?

Idk but it is pretty sus, literally the whole UEFA...

if it is true, than that would be great!

Just realised its about players from these countries, from what i saw, but it wont be released a full team (like San Marino). 

To add, yes there will be simular teams just like 23/24. 

oh ok

C'moon we need to have new cl format to test it.. pleasee :)

 

I am addicted to this site :D

Hi! 1st and 2nd French divisions are available on matchsimulator, so i decided to create a mod for 3rd division! Match Simulator | Mod 'French 3rd Division'

With all this clubs, i added also FC Martigues, which got promoted to 2nd division this year

 

Note : For Dijon, Nîmes and Red Star, here is other mods created by other users : 

Match Simulator | Mod 'Teams France'

Match Simulator | Mod 'France'

Great mod, thanks so much! I was wondering though, where can you find the Eerste Divise teams?

Hi! Thanks a lot! 

If you are speaking about the First French Division, it's already integrated on matchsimulator : Match Simulator | Ligue 1

If you are speaking about another thing, tell me i'll help you!

Sorry for not specifying! It is the Dutch second division

Oh okay there's a mod by @Larsson which covers it :)

https://matchsimulator.com/mod/49450/netherlands-2nd-division

See Match Simulator | Public Mods for more divisions

Hope this helps!

Hello, can someone give me the list of every club without ranking and ratings?

Without modes, all 642 teams from FC 24

What about the Brazilian teams?

I think there's too

Brazilian teams aren't in FC24 for example J. Rodriguez isn't in in the database and T. Silva won't be next year

Maybe turkey, potugal and other leagues could addd as events.. also we need to have new champions league format to test new format please

Maybe Portugal as the dutch league is there I don't think the turkish league is in FC24

Hi, when will the teams for the 2024/25 season be updated? Thank you

Most times about a month after the game (EA's FC25) releases.

Ok, Thanks

When ea 25 release

September 27

Bruh there's so many time

Hi, can you add stars? for example Real Madrid 5 stars or UCD Dublin 0,5 stars

I guess it can be interesting

 

u should add a way to easily see every teams scorers and assisters
