How it works
FiveThirtyEight predicts the outcome of the season’s SPI ratings, which, according to the website, are its most productive estimate of a team’s overall strength.
Each team receives an attack score that constitutes the number of goals expected to score against an average team, and a defensive score to constitute the number of goals it would award.
These scores produce a general SPI score, which is the percentage of problems you average in a game. These notes are compared to an opponent’s score to simulate the final results of a match.
From there, it’s imaginable to simulate the outcome of an entire season.
