Is the English Premier League competitive? Find out with statistics. #RSS2024conf

Two slides with the title Is the English premier league competitive? Presented by Nial Friel – University College Dublin Data arising from sporting competitions provide an abundance of interesting statistical challenges, from both a modelling and an inferential perspective. This talk will explore some of these challenges, including the question of how to cluster and rank teams (or individuals) based on pairwise comparison data. That is, when the data consists of the outcome when pairs of teams (or individuals) play against one another. A particular example will illustrate a modelling framework that can be used to assess how competitive the English Premier League has been over the past 40 years.

Ooh interesting. UCD is my Alma Mater where I studied sport and ended up working in football. Now working in Analytics (not football analytics though) so that's ticking all my boxes.
