What is it about?
We propose and investigate a temporalized version of the popular Massey’s technique for rating players and teams in sport competitions. In our variant, team ratings are updated at every match according to their performance in the match and the strength at the time of the match of the opponent team. Using the Italian soccer dataset, we empirically show that the method has a good foresight prediction accuracy.
