English-Premier-League-Prediction

Apply machine learning to predict English Premier League soccer match.

Demo App

   

To Run

python3 model.py

Warning: Few python packages required to run the script. Install them all, or use a 3rd party IDE (such as spyder) that pre-installs these packages by default. Few of the packages required are:

  • brew cask install chromedriver
  • brew install libomp
  • pip3 install xgboost
  • pip3 install selenium

   

Scripts

1. clean_data.py

  • Includes necessary helper functions to process raw data

2. current_status.py

  • Collects and adds more details to the processed raw data
  • current/past standings, goals for/against/differences, etc.

3. match_history.py

  • Collects the latest match results

4. rankings.py

  • Calculate league points and generate standings

5. sofifa_scraper.py

  • Scrape overall team stat from FIFA

6. predict.py

  • With using processed data, train a ML model to predict future results

7. model.py

  • I/O file where the functions from the above files are actually executed

   

Data

1. data/raw/OVAs (directory)

  • scraped overall team stat data

2. data/cleaned/standings (directory)
