Modelling Football as a Markov Process : Estimating transition probabilities through regression analysis and investigating it’s application to live betting markets

This degree thesis aims for a modeling of football set pieces (i.e Throw Ins, Free Kicks, Goal Kicks and Corners) through the use of Markov theory. By using regression analysis on a various range of covariates we will try to estimate the transition probabilities of such a process from a state to ano...
