I've always been a huge fan of football, and I've been playing fantasy premier league with my friends for a while now. I wanted to get a deeper understanding of the numbers behind the sport to help me make better decisions and finally win my fantasy league. That's why I decided to work through the book "Learn to code with football" and create this project. This repository contains my solutions to the end-of-chapter exercises, which I've written in Python.

I plan to continue building on this project by:
- Applying the concepts from the book to real-world football data.
- Building a predictive model for fantasy premier league that can help me with player selection and transfers.
- Visualizing the data and my model's predictions to gain more insights.
- Sharing my findings and code with the football analytics community.
