Listen "Soccer gentrification, how money is making the game more predictable | Coffeesodes 34"
Episode Synopsis
This coffeesode discusses a research that used network science to analyze 88,000 soccer matches across 11 major European leagues over 26 years. The study revealed a significant increase in soccers predictability, particularly in wealthier leagues, correlated with growing inequality between teams. Furthermore, the discussion reveals that home-field advantage is demonstrably decreasing. The discussion proposes future research to explore the impact of monetization on this trend.
