Authors

We present a graph-based approach to analyzing player interaction
in team sports. A simple pass-based representation is presented
that is subsequently used together with the PageRank algorithm to identify the importance of the players. Aggregating player scores to team values allows for turning our approach into a predictor of the winning team. We report on empirical results on five German Bundesliga seasons.
