Weekend Reflection

 It was the first week of the senior project. On Monday, I took a flight of nearly fourteen hours, with a transfer in Hong Kong, and finally arrived in Shanghai. Many of my friends didn't understand why I had to go back in just two weeks, probably because I was homesick.

I arrived in Shanghai on Tuesday, but then something unexpected happened. Probably because I was not used to a new place, I started to catch a cold, but fortunately I did not have a fever. However, this cold lasted from Wednesday morning until now and still hasn't healed ---- My birthday was also spent in piles and piles of napkins and cold medicine.

During the week, I spent the first three days on some introductory type of things. Let's say the origins, origin and history of the lottery, etc. After that, I introduced some of the companies in the lottery and the formulas we can use in our daily predictions. It includes these four factors: Home Attacking Strength (HAS) = team's expected goals per home game (xG) / league team's average expected goals per home game (xG) (higher is better)


Home Defensive Strength (HDS) = Expected goals conceded per home game (xGA) / Average expected goals conceded per home game (xGA) for league teams (lower is better).


Away Attacking Strength (AAS) = team's expected goals per away game (xG) / league team's average expected goals per away game (xG) (higher is better).


Away Defensive Strength (ADS) = Expected goals conceded by the team per away game (xGA) / Average expected goals conceded by the league team per away game ( xGA) (the lower the better).

After that, I made a prediction for the AC Milan vs Inter Milan game last night. As a result, Inter Milan did win with a score of 1:0.

In the next week, I will do some statistical and mathematical analysis of the match. For example, will the team with high/low odds on all picks win, etc

 Section/Factor 2  Profit and loss index analysis Both profit and loss and Kelly Index are based on the analysis of the proportion of the public trading , to analyze the profit model of each large institution. Compared with the latter, the former gives stronger and more direct feedback to the profit situation of the institution. The process of calculating the profit index is actually the process of the cost accounting of the institution. I.

 I've had a cold and a sore throat for the last few days. I think it's because I just came to Shanghai and haven't adapted yet. To help explain the importance of pricing the soccer matches you want to bet on, we'll use a simple example to explain how to do so. It is important to note that this pricing method actually has a lot of holes in it and on its own will not help you find value in the soccer betting market. First, I used a Poisson model to create 1X2 odds for the final round of matches in the Premier League 2020/21 season. By using Infogol's expected goals scored data for that season, we can calculate the offensive strength and defensive strength of each team at home and on the road. By using the ratio of team averages to league averages, we can evaluate the team's ability to score and concede goals relatively. We do not use actual goals scored, but rather expected goals scored. This data provides a more accurate picture of team performance and reduces th

       Today I am flying from HangKong to Shanghai, and will be settled there for the rest time of project. I did some simple research of the history of soccer lottery, since this is just a blog, I am not going to spend a lot of time to describe it here because I create a google slide and will do all of the analysis and research there. Here is a brief summary of the history of soccer lottery. It originated in Europe with the popularization of the sport and has a long history, with a wide variety of lotteries such as win-loss, goal, semi-full and single games. Unlike other digital lotteries, it has predictability, spectacle, and higher winning rate than other lottery games. Technical analysis of handicaps and odds and team information gathering are important means of winning. Worldwide, soccer lottery tickets are sold by legally registered betting companies or government gaming agencies. In China, soccer lottery started late and was launched on October 26, 2001, issued by the China Spo
