August 14th – this Saturday – is the first day of the English Premier League 2010/11 season. I have debated over it, and finally decided that I'll post on the football as well. [At the very least it will give me something to blog about over the winter when there's no Formula 1]
All twenty teams will be playing over the weekend, and I'll be covering various statistics. The usual ones should be:
- Average goals per game (over one weekend)
- Average cards per game (over one weekend)
- Top goalscorer (of the weekend)
- Total goals (whole season)
- Total yellow cards (whole season)
- Total red cards (whole season)
There are ten matches each weekend, but there will be no games when England are playing as so many teams will be losing key players across the world. Each team plays the other nineteen twice, so in total that will be 10*19*2 games or 380. Most matches take place on the Saturday, with a few on Sunday and (rarely) Monday.
