Football match outcome prediction is a classic challenge in applied data science: noisy data, evolving tactics, and unpredictable events make forecasting hard. Recently, combining sports data APIs (providing structured match, player, and event metrics) with large language models (LLMs) for reasoning and context has produced surprisingly effective probabilistic forecasts.
At ai-football-predictions.co.uk I explore pipelines that ingest detailed match data, engineer rich features, and use LLM reasoning to contextualise predictions — bridging statistical pattern recognition with narrative understanding. This approach demonstrates how modern AI workflows (data APIs + LLMs) can augment traditional ML models in sports analytics, and might be of interest to anyone working on real-world prediction systems, feature engineering, or model interpretability.
