  1. Perhaps you should consider using the fixtures from eloratings.net (http://www.eloratings.net/fixtures) instead of FIFA website, which has become very unreliable. Elo website has every friendly scheduled already there. There are some that are not an official "A" friendly that count for the rankings, but still it's a better choice than going with FIFA website that misses too many matches.

    1. Nogomet, I try to give a correct prediction of the FIFA-ranking so I can only use matches that are included in FIFA's fixture list. I'm dependent on that list.

      And besides, the ranking above is only an intermediate preview based on elo-predicted results of scheduled matches. So there are a few more uncertainties here than just a couple of missed matches.

      Of course I use the elo-rating fixture list also, to maintain a match-database that is as complete as possible. So I know which matches probably still are to be included in the FIFA-list. I just don't want to prelude on that.
