Scientist from the Wissenschaftler of Münster have analysed the statistics of the German Bundesliga thoroughly and could characterise a football match as𓃲 a Poisson-Process and like that made football results calculable. The crucial finding of the scientists is that goals in football are a product of coincidence. Goals, however, aren’t a sole game of dice but are influenced by the technical abilities of the players, the so called performance level, of both teams.
In the Bundesliga a typical outcome of match is determined of coincidence by 86%. 14% are no coincidence 𝓀and distinct a top team from a potential 🧸relegation team.
Stunnin▨g൲: All teams in the Bundesliga have about the same conversion of chances.
Home teams score more goals on average. Average 1,66 home and 1,20 away goals. Ther🍨e is an overall home advantage but no evidence that in addition to that te🦩ams perform especially well at home. Thus, home strength is a myth.
Typically 3 goals are scored in a match. To be precise, the number of goals has decreased over time and now ꦫamounts to 2,8.
R🥀ather not. 46 % of all wins are based upon a one-goal-margin.
No. Only about 25% of matches result ins draw. By implication 7♑5% of matches have♈ a winner!
Yes, but since th🐲e middle of the 80s, the number of away wins is constantly getting bigger. While during the 70s distinctively more than 20% of matches resulted ins away win, that figure already amounted to 🃏33% in the season of 2010/2011.
Extraordinary: On the last two match days about 20% more goals are scored than on average. So: Bet on higher resu♓lts!
The goal differente of past matches is especially informative for the purpose of predictions. It is significantly more informative than the number of points. The expected amount of goals, on the o🔜ther hand, is quite similar among all teams.
Goalscoring opp🌌ortunities are a lot 🌳more informative for the sake of prognosis. Good teams show a slightly better conversion.
The market value of a team as determined before the start of the season is extremely strongly correlated with their actual performance. Rule of thumb: Doubling of t🌜he market value = 10 additional points or a goal difference increased by 16 goals.
A season-specific average Performance level of a team does exist. (Performance level = goal di💜fference thܫat a team scores against an average opponent)
The coincidence averages out during the course of the season. The longer the season has already progressed, the more reliable goals and opportunit🗹ies display the performances of teams.
A football match is dominated by effects of coincidence. Additionally t🌟he performance level of offense and defense are🍃 correlated.
Without effects of coincidence, the difference of goalscorin꧃g opportunities would perfectly predict the performance level.
The goal difference is determined by effects of coincidence wi🐼th 86% (match day) or 29% (seꦯason) on average.
Fluctuations of performa🐲nce levels from match day to match day are, therefore, not🌞 statistically relevant. The changes of performances levels take place during the summer break and only rare
There are no positive series. The💙 concept of a “streak“ is, thus, void. Unfortunate꧑ly this does not apply for negative series - those do exist. As Andi Brehme famously put it: “When you got shit on your foot, you got shit on your foot!“
In the context of statistical preciseness, theꦍ conversion of effective goalscoring opportunities is identical for all teams. For 𓃲that reason the goalscoring opportunities are quite significant for the prediction of goals.
The performa🐷nce of promoted teams is astonishingly well predetermined. Significant deviations from the lower half of the table (goal difference: -13 +/- 8) are, thus, extremely rare. For that reason a „march through“ is very special.
With the help of the market value and the effective differente of goalscoring opportunities you can come closer to the perfect predic꧋tion of the secoꦺnd half of the season..
No. In fact only in𒉰 half of🦹 the cases the best team wins and becomes German champion at the end of the season.
Noꦬ. Statistically, there are no bogey team. The scientist’s search for bogey teams was negative. Looking at it statistically the effect is under 10🃏%.
Of course we know! But it is enough for today, we will let you🃏 know anotherﷺ rime.
