Hi,
Thank you for your feed-back. Yes, you are absolutely right. I also tried to predict the results for every match based on players performance, however, major drawback is that not every league has the same competitiveness. For example, players from Catar league have a lot of goals and caps when compared from players from German, UK, France, or Italy leagues. This may cause an error that all players from Catar have better better performance, but in reality this is not that straight forward. Also, we should base our analysis only on 11 players (and the % of time they are playing in every match). This would require a much deeper analysis. Do you have any idea on how to solve these questions?
Thank you!
