World Cup prediction model
My team participates in a World Cup prediction league, I don’t really know much about football teams but figured I’d build a prediction model to try and top the charts. Uses a Poisson distribution model and Monte Carlo simulations. I wrote up the process and the maths as well as generated some inline SVGs (no chart library). Next working on whether Dixon-Coles low scoring correction would have had an impact on the outcome and in which direction.
