The Hackathon will focus on two key challenges:

• Predicting Team Winning Probability: Build a model to predict a team’s winning probability based on player performance statistics using the provided datasets (2019-2020 Fixtures and 2020-2021 Fixtures). (more details: Link)
• Identifying the Best Tactical Position: Develop an AI model to identify the best tactical position for a player based on their recent performance using the datasets (Premier League Players 23_24 Stats).

Selection can be based on the following criteria:

• Accuracy of Models: Evaluate the predictive performance of their AI models using appropriate metrics (e.g., precision, recall).
• Innovation: Assess how innovative their approaches and methodologies are in tackling the challenges.
• Use of Data: Review how effectively they utilized and integrated the provided datasets.
• Scalability: Determine how well their solutions can be applied or adapted to broader contexts.
• Presentation and Clarity: Evaluate how clearly and professionally they present their solutions during the demo.
