CIES Football Observatory 2014 Scenario
Scenario Methodology The CIES Football Observatory has analysed the career trajectory of squad members from the last four finalists and is now able to identify some of the factors which allowed them to outperform their rivals in the competition. The Observatory academic team have selected the following indicators for assessing the potential of the 2014 participants: - - for the two years preceding the event - - for the two years preceding the event - for the two years preceding the event - matches The results for each national team are illustrated through a diagram with green or red boxes. A green box means that the value measured for the team is superior to the minimal figure observed for the last four finalists for the 11 players with the highest values. If this is not the case, the box is red. The greater the proportion of green boxes, the higher the probability of reaching the final stages of the competition.retour ligne automatique In the case of a tie, we took into account the number of matches of national teams during the last four editions.

Set up in 2005 by Drs Raffaele Poli and Loïc Ravenel, it currently comprises a staff of four full-time permanent researchers specialised in data mining and the statistical analysis of sport. Two reports are published every year. In January, the Demographic Study presents an in-depth analysis of club composition and player characteristics in 31 top division leagues of UEFA member countries. In June, the Annual Review analyses clubs and players in the big-5 European leagues from a demographic, economic and pitch performance perspective. Since 2005, the CIES Football Observatory has been mandated to undertake original research by several prestigious institutions such as, but not limited to, FIFA, UEFA, European Club Association (ECA), European Professional Football Leagues (EPFL), Swiss Football League (SFL), as well as top-flight European clubs in several countries.
