EASIEST Model to PREDICT Football Matches With ELO | Excel Beginner Tutorial

[@2357y1113]

Thank you for the excel tutorial. But did you have any success actually betting with these predictions? Can you share some experience? How many games did you need to make a more or less consistent net gain?

[@victorbongos9269]

Your Excel skills are top-notch. Tell me, how can I update the matches on the excel on a regularly basis without interfering with the data in the table?

[@ChristianRavnkildeAndersen]

Great video and model. I'm trying to re-build it, but is having a small issue with the games drop down on the Dashboard. When I select the drop down I only get the first game for each date. The drop down says (e.g. Jan 13): "Rækkemærkater" (Danish equal to Row Labels) "Alcorcon vs Mirandes" When I see the Games sheet everything looks fine. All games from coloumn A copied into column B. Do you have any idea what the problem can be?

[@excel_ladz]

Hi lad, thanks for watching 🔥 My first suggestion would be to ensure that the copied timeline in 10:10 of the video updates the 'games' range when you change the date. You can just switch back and forth between the 'Dashboard' and 'Games' worksheet to doublecheck this 👍 My second suggestion would be that when you select the 'list' in Data Validation, make sure the boxes 'Ignore blank' and 'In-cell drop-down' are both selected. This can be seen at 10:40 of the video. If none of these work lad, it may be due to your version of Excel not supporting dynamic ranges or arrays. It's odd though that Column B of the 'Games' worksheet works yet your Dashboard worksheet dropdown list is not. Let me know if that helps lad 😃

Brilliant idea Mr. Lad! Video already saved in my favorites! :) Once I skimmed through that club ELO API but I didn't pay much attention to it. I'm glad you got this great idea. Thanks! Idea for you (if feasible): Dixon-Coles implementation of Poisson Distribution. Basically the two gentlemen added a parameter to the two independent Poisson Distributions of a matchup with the objective of creating a kind of dependence between the two Poissons and correct the low score probabilities (1-0, 0-0, 0-1). The challenge is calculating that parameter. I've seen it done in code (R or Python) but maybe it is not feasible in Excel... Cheers

[@excel_ladz]

I'm glad you liked the video lad! Your comment is very interesting. I have read about certain limitations of the Poisson distribution surrounding the low scores, so I'll definitely do some research surrounding the Dixon-Coles implementation. However, this will most likely take some time, so unfortunately it may not be a video in the short term.

[@seychelles44]

That’s wicked. Well done. I’m not sure if I missed it, but can this be made so it’s automated by dragging in the latest stats?

[@excel_ladz]

@@seychelles44 Don't apologise lad! It's my job to answer questions from loyal subscribers 👍 1. If you're getting a 0 for the Team Names in the Dashboard then there's a couple things that could be wrong. Firstly, check that you have access to the XLOOKUP function. Only recent versions of Excel have it. If you don't, change the function to VLOOKUP and adjust accordingly. Secondly, you may simply have just entered the XLOOKUP formula wrong. However, if the XLOOKUP formula (12:00) is correct, that means your Team ID's column has not been formatted like mine. This means the XLOOKUP is searching for the wrong range to return. 2. If you're getting 0% for the heat map, then it's more than likely it's the same issue here. Check if you have XLOOKUP, and then check if your data is formatted EXACTLY like mine in the video. 3. I'd save this file as a regular Excel worksheet. When you update the sheet, do what I do at 1:25 and go to the Text to Columns Wizard.

This is good - is the data on Club Elo actual data rather than expected? One thing I’ve noticed is that the win % it gives can be very different to Poisson for example

[@excel_ladz]

Hi lad, I myself have found that the Poisson method is much more accurate than the data this model imports. The ELO data is based on scorelines, and gives no bearing to who was playing in matches and the importance of a match to each club... This means, a Poisson model, factoring player strength in each match, is a much more predicative method 👍 Very soon lad I'll be releasing a video on how to build this model on Excel 💪 Thank you for watching lad!

[@bigbadbobthefish]

@@excel_ladz yes agreed - it would be good if you could alter the future model to exploit the other markets which aren’t as liquid and are more exploitable, like win to nil, for example. The 1x2 markets are notoriously tough to beat as the bookies have these models dialled in. I personally have been having more success with bet builders and goalscorer markets. The goalscorer market you can reverse engineer the market odds to give some success.

Or lad how can we get this model to suggest an over/unders game?

[@excel_ladz]

Hi lad, I’m really glad you enjoyed the video. The what-if analysis function is not really relevant in this video as the win percentages are already calculated for each team. When I use what-if analysis, it’s for a Monte Carlo simulation where I can simulate scenarios on a large scale. Then from there, the probability of each outcome makes itself apparent, e.g. Arsenal beats Man United 3450 out of every 10000 simulations, therefore Arsenal have a 34.50% chance of winning. I use this method when I do not already know the probability distribution for a game. I hope this helps lad.

Firstly, can I confirm you are using an English version of Excel? There was one subscriber who's issue with the formula was immediately fixed, because he was using the French version of Office, and so the BINOM.INV formula was written differently. Secondly, try breaking up the formula into parts. To simulate the 2 pointers, enter in: 2*BINOM.INV(BINOM.INV(F12,G12,RAND()),H12,RAND()) If this simulation works and changes every time you update the cells, then move onto the 3 pointers and Free Throws until the formula for Pts Sim. is complete.

any tips on how to make an elo rating system for NFL games, now that the season is about to start?

[@excel_ladz]

G’day lad, I would firstly find the most reliable site. There would be a million different ways to compile ELO Ratings, so use the most well established ELO website for the NFL. The formula to compile the win percentage based off of the ELO Ratings will differ with each system… While I don’t recommend you get the actual ratings from Wikipedia, it’s good for searching for mathematical formulas to transform the ratings into win probability. ELO Ratings only deal with win/loss scenarios. As a result, any expected goals calculations as well as draw probabilities cannot reliably be calculated. I know all this is probably common sense, but I hope it helps a bit lad 🤞

Hi lad, I’ll try and give you a couple broad suggestions in the hope it’ll fix it for you. Wit regards to the percentages, you have to convert them yourself by selecting all the relevant cells, and then clicking on the percentage icon in the home tab. Once all your data is in, go to the Data tab and select ‘Refresh All’. This will make sure your pivot table updates, and you can then use the slicer to file yet games by date.

Given two teams, A and B, with Elo ratings Elo_A and Elo_B, the probability of team A to win the match is: 1 / (1 + 10^ ((Elo_B - Elo_A)/400) ). For Team B, just swap Elo_A and Elo_B in the equation. Elo rating doesn't account for draws. Also I don't know how club Elo is calculating the goal difference using Elo ratings.

Thanks for watching lad, but unfortunately the website I've imported the date from does not provide first half / second half data for us to calculate. This is an extremely simple model, a more detailed football model which I'm planning to upload int he short term will go though half analysis.

I cannot see the formula

The data from the source was not that accurate since most of the predictions were wrong , with team statistics why don't you get your own winning,draw, losing chances

[@excel_ladz]

G’day lad, I 100% agree with you. There are many flaws with this website’s calculations. Have a look at my NBA video where I walk through how to build a model, completely from scratch, on how to predict basketball games using player stats. Thanks for watching the vid lad, make sure you’re subscribe for more 🔥 Follow Excel LADZ on Twitter to be able to DM me about any sports modelling questions (@excel_ladz) 💪.

Hi lad, unfortunately this website doesn't provide stats for South American football leagues 😔 However, very soon I'll publish a video on 'How to Predict Football Games using the Poisson Distribution' that will be a much more accurate system of predicting matches than this video. Furthermore, you will be able to apply this to South American leagues 👍 Thank you for being a loyal subscriber lad 💪

Has anyone won money using this system?

Hi lad, not that I know of yet mate. This is a very simple model, make sure you're subscribed for more accurate models I'll be releasing very soon 💪.

Hello, I'm using office 2016 where the XLOOKUP function is missing and I used the VLOOKUP function so unfortunately the teams are not displayed in the field after the formula. where could be the problem ?

[@excel_ladz]

Hi lad, the VLOOKUP function is slightly different to XLOOKUP so watch you don’t accidentally list the wrong ranges in the formula 👍 With a VLOOKUP in this video, it should be: =VLOOKUP(lookup value, range containing the lookup value, the column number in the range containing the return value, FALSE) If you have a more specific issue with the formula (e.g. at one stage of the video) please let me know lad 🔥

[@vilemschrojf8026]

@@excel_ladz The problem has been solved, but there is another problem I can't save the file with all the sheets. When I save the file, excel says that I have to save each sheet in the file separately. so I saved each sheet separately and when I open them again, the table with the formulas stops working actually all the formulas are missing. how the hell do I do that thanks for the advice.

@@excel_ladz Hi Unfortunately I'm using excel 2019 and don' have Xlookup, can you provide a workaround for the lookup at 12:20 stage Thanks
