Show HN: Euroelo, a ranking of European football teams

1 points by fredericdith 5 hours ago

first post here and first time sharing this small project of mine. hoping to find people interested in european football and statistics to receive feedback. i know the overlap is quite small but i thought i'd give it a shot here :)

euroelo is basically an ELO ranking of european football teams purely based on their results in domestic and european competitions. i have a problem with both opta (https://theanalyst.com/articles/who-are-the-best-football-te...) and clubelo (http://clubelo.com/Ranking) who strongly overvalue english teams. i wondered what a ranking without any pre-baked bias towards any league would look like, and this is what i ended up with.

the site is organized as follows: * ranking: lets you check the rankings at any point in time * chart: same but with a chart, to compare multiple teams * narratives: this is one of the features that came up during development. i can't think of any website or service that lets you see these type of narratives easily * matchup: odds between any two teams, at today's ratings

i'm open to any feedback: does the model feel/seem accurate? any features you would like to see? where could i potentially take this project?

thanks!
