Hi

I have a spreadsheet that contains football scores contained in a table. Columns A and B contain the home and away teams, and C to F show the number of goals scored in each half by both the home and away teams. A little difficult to explain in writing, but hopefully the below makes it a bit clearer!

G2:H9G2=IF(E2>0,"Y","N")


The figures in columns K and L show:
K: The number of times the team in J2 have scored in the 2nd half, over the last 5 matches.
L: The number of goals the team in J2 have scored in the 2nd half, over the last 5 matches.

I have calculated the figures in columns K and L manually, but would like to know if there is a formula that would calculate these automatically. I assume an array formula is required. I have dug out an old thread from a few years back where I asked something similar, and have adapted that solution to calculate the figure for column L. Although this appears to calculate where both teams have scored in the 2nd half, rather than just the team in J2, I believe it might be a starting point:

{=SUM(((((Table4[[#Data],[Home Team]]=J2)+(Table4[[#Data],[Away Team]]=J2))*ROW(Table4[[#Data],[Home Team]]))>LARGE(((Table4[[#Data],[Home Team]]=J2)+(Table4[[#Data],[Away Team]]=J2))*ROW(Table4[[#Data],[Home Team]]),6))*((Table4[[#Data],[Home Team 2nd Half]]>0)*(Table4[[#Data],[Away Team 2nd Half]]>0)))}

I believe the first part in the non-bold text might be correct, but am having difficulty with the last section in bold. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.
 
All the responses so far have been very interesting, and an education for someone who isn't great with arrays.
But do they all work? You will have seen some discussion among the helpers about certain functions being available or not available to some people. It would be useful to know whether they are available to you. Reason being, those people making suggestions involving, for example, the TAKE function may not wish to spend their time developing suggestions for your follow-up question(s) if you do not have access to that function.

You will also have seen suggestions just for Bolton and other suggestions for a list of teams from your table. It would be helpful to know which of those circumstances you actually want.

Hi again. Apologies for the delay, an insanely busy week means I have only just been able to get back to this.

Thank you again for your replies. Although I didn't originally ask, the methods of listing each individual team are very useful and will save time.

I do have access to the TAKE functions, so I have been able to use these ok. All the suggestions from jasonb75, Eric W, cmowla and Peter_SSs work for the last 5 matches overall.

However, I perhaps should have been clearer in my original question... I need to see the number of matches and the number of goals scored in each individual teams last 5 matches. Therefore, Leicester would return 1 in column K and 1 in column L.

bebo021999 solution appears to do this. If there is a way to tweak this that would also show the number of goals conceded by each team in their last 5 matches, that would be great.

Thanks.

Would you have the entire league in one table then? I think the others have all based their suggestions on that assumption. I was working on the basis of the table having all games for a specific team in line with the example.

It isn't pretty, but it gets the job done. (I thought it would be easiest to make a "new table" in columns N - P to start out with which helps to get the last n games for each team. From there, it was simply getting indexes of the new table!)
  • Must carry down formulas in columns J - M.
  • Allows you to change the # of games to see the stats for in H2.
  • Ignore columns N - P, but the formula/table needs to be there!

See if these do what you want (check the table name)
In column M - Goals conceded in last (up to) 5 games - I have used a different notation which makes the formula considerably shorter, but perhaps harder to read/understand. If it does what you want but wanted the fuller version, M2 would be
Excel Formula:
=LET(z,IF(Table5[Home Team]=J2,Table5[Away Team 1stHalf]+Table5[Away Team 2nd Half],IF(Table5[Away Team]=J2,Table5[Home Team 1stHalf]+Table5[Home Team 2nd Half],"")),SUM(TAKE(FILTER(z,z<>""),-5)))

Works a treat that. Thanks.

And thank you all for your help. Using the TAKE and LET functions will be something I will look into using more frequently in future.
