## What the Panel Shows

### Matchup Section

For each team or competitor involved in the market:

**Recent Form Badges** — a row of colored markers showing the last 5 results at a glance:

* 🟢 **W** — Win
* 🔴 **L** — Loss
* 🟡 **D** — Draw

**Last 5 Matches** — full breakdown for each game:

* Date, opponent (with club badge), and final score
* Result badge (W / L / D) per match

This lets you instantly see who's in form and who's struggling — without leaving Polymarket.

### Current Standings

Full league standings table for the relevant competition, including:

| Column        | Description                   |
| ------------- | ----------------------------- |
| **#**         | Current position in the table |
| **Team**      | Club name and badge           |
| **W / D / L** | Wins, Draws, Losses           |
| **GF / GA**   | Goals scored and conceded     |
| **PTS**       | Total points                  |

The two teams in the matchup are highlighted in the standings table for quick reference.

## How to Use It

**For match winner markets** (e.g., "Will Barcelona beat Atlético?"):

1. Check the recent form badges — 5 greens vs a mix of red and green tells the story immediately
2. Look at individual match results — are the wins against strong or weak opponents?
3. Check standings — gap in points and position reflects the season-long gap in quality

**For season outcome markets** (e.g., "Will \[Team] win the league?"):

1. Check current points and position in the standings
2. Count remaining games and look at recent form — is the team in a good run or collapsing?

**For competition-specific markets** (tennis, F1):

* Player rankings and recent results for tennis
* Race and qualifying results for F1 markets

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://polyhelper.gitbook.io/polyhelper-docs/analytics-tools/sports-intel.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
