There is not much to analyze yet, as there is only one round to modify the probabilities drawn from past results and bookmakers. Still, the current simulation is useful for the future analysis of the moving probabilities for the teams final positions, and, in particular, for checking the likelihood of new underdogs -- or, how likely is a new Leicester City? The model is showing that the probability for Leicester City repeating the last year position has not decreased significantly, but the Hull City has already decreased the probability of relegation -- way to go, Tigers! The more likely candidates for relegation are now Burnley, Sunderland and Bournemouth -- but these probabilities, as described, are still under the hevay influence of bookmakers' odds and past performances, whose importance for the model will decrease when it has more actual results to work with.
The columns are:
- w, d, and l are, as expected, the number of matches for each team ending in a win, a draw or a loss; pld is the total number of matches played and pts the current number of points
- gf and ga are, respectively, the number of goals scored ('Goal For') and goals suffered ('Goal Against), with gd the goal difference (gf-ga)
- Champion is the current probably for the team to win the English Premier League, given the current situation and historical performance both of the team itself and of teams in its current position
- CL Groups is the current probability for the team to finish among the three best teams, qualifying for the group stage of the Champions League
- CL Playoffs is the current probability for the team to finish in the fourth position, qualifying for the playoff stage of the Champions League
- EL is the current probability for the team to finish in the fifth position, qualifying for the Europa League
- Rel is the current probability for the team to finish among the three worse teams, being relegated
