A modified version of the European Soccer Database by Hugo Mathien (https://www.kaggle.com/hugomathien). New players' performance indicators have been created from the original dataset.
Data features:
+ 25,000 matches
11 European Countries with their lead championship
Seasons from 2008 to 2016
25 role-based Performance Indicators: players and teams' attributes (sourced from EA Sports' FIFA video game series, including the weekly updates) have been subtracted by location (home - away) and averaged by match and role (X, Y coordinates of the team line up).
