Machine Football

The Machine Football Massive Model has mapped each layer of football for over 320,000 players and 2,000 clubs, redefining how data and AI is used in football.

All three promoted clubs got relegated. Again. That’s now two seasons in a row — and historically nearly 70% of promoted sides don’t survive more than a year.

Check out our article that lays out the four steps required to stay in the Premier League.

@FabrizioRomano @marcosbenito9 Is Konaté really a major loss for Liverpool?

Our cohesion model, which maps on-ball interactions across the team, suggests otherwise.

@FabrizioRomano Elite in the air. Limited elsewhere?

While Dumfries dominates aerial duels, our AI model gives his attacking attributes a low rating on a 1–100 scale – making him a questionable fit for Real Madrid's future plans.

@FabrizioRomano Fulham's expected position this season: 7th. They finished 11th.

Their cohesion (which measures how the team interacts) sits at just 43/100 – and it shows in the results.

Silva leaves with unfinished business. Whoever comes in inherits a squad that should be doing better.

Tottenham Hotspur have announced the signing of Conor Gallagher for £35 million.

However, as many Spurs supporters fear, our model predicts the midfielder is unlikely to address the area they urgently need to improve most – their build-up play.

@LFC's longest Premier League losing streak. No goals from €125m Wirtz. Full-back replacements failing.

Machine Football's Massive Model explains why Arne Slot's system is breaking down.

@afcbournemouth A comfortable win for Bournemouth, collecting their 4th clean sheet of the season.

Despite the losses of Hujsen, Zabarnyi and Kerkez, the Cherries have maintained the strong defensive resilience which trademarked their impressive 2024/25 campaign.

@Arsenal A far from perfect performance for the Gunners, but the solidity of Arteta’s defence gave Palace nothing after the opening 25 minutes.

A snapshot of their playing style within our model highlights the efficiency of their press, with a PPDA of just 8.9.

@Arsenal Hoping the knock to Rice isn't too serious.

Our model highlights how crucial he is to Mikel Arteta's system – interacting effectively with almost all of his Arsenal teammates.

@BurnleyOfficial Giving up a two goal lead would have been unthinkable last season for Burnley.

The Clarets conceded a total of just 40.83 xG across 2024/25 – the third lowest value of all current PL sides.

Another stat to highlight the disparity between the PL and Championship.

Early relegation battles, resurgent United, and Grealish vs Porro headline another key Premier League weekend.

#Wood also offers far more going forward than Dyche's previous options at Everton, which is likely to make his direct system more effective than it was on Merseyside.

[Machine Football @MachineF00tball]

Sean #Dyche confirmed as the new #NFFC head coach this morning.

Our analysis of his his final full season at #Everton (2023/24) highlights how Chris Wood will be eager to get going under his former #Burnley boss due to his preference for creating headed chances.

If Ange fails to pick up a win in the weeks following the recent international break, starting with a tough test at home to #ChelseaFC, Forest's controversial owner, Evangelos Marinakis, may have another decision to make.

[Machine Football @MachineF00tball]

#NFFC are in free-fall under new boss Ange Postecoglou – six games without a win, and fans are already questioning his credentials.

[Machine Football @MachineF00tball]

These issues have since transferred over to #Forest.

Where Nuno was able to recognise and build on his squad’s pre-existing strengths, Postecoglou struggles to acknowledge when it might be best to adapt (at least in domestic competition).
