Mathematical Modelling of Football

During autumn 2021 I had the great opportunity to attend the course Mathematical Modelling of Football at Uppsala University by David Sumpter, and it was a really great course. I can really recommend it. We got the chance to work with data covering the previous season of Premier League in one of the assignments, and below I have produced some posts with charts based on this data. Instead of letting them just be forgotten on my computer, I thought I at least could share them somewhere on Internet. If anyone has some explanations, observations or general thoughts about any of the charts below, please feel free to leave a comment.
