  2. Background • The first division of Brazilian soccer league includes 20 teams • Every team plays against all others twice • Total of 380 games per year • The championship format was different before 2003

  3. Project Goal • Predictthe score ofany match ofthefirstdivisionoftheBraziliannationalchampionshipusing a Multi-layerperceptron.

  4. Data Extraction • Public study about the market value of Brazilian teams Source: http://www.pluriconsultoria.com.br/relatorio.php?segmento=sport&id=263

  5. Data Extraction • Publically available game results from 2003 through 2012 • Python program was used to extract and format the data into .txt files according to each team (with Alberto Tavares) • http://www.bolanaarea.com/gal_brasileirao.htm
