Abstract

Game outcome prediction is a well known problem to predict, yet there are aspects, features, and advantages that aren’t taken into account in most modules. In this paper, we investigate various features and aspects of a prediction outcome for a team vs team, this includes basic known features such as home court advantage, number of days between games and winning streaks as well as less conventional features such as player similarity score, gambling odds, team specifications. The analysis is based on descriptive statistics and while it is mainly restricted to the National Basketball Association, it can be projected towards other sports as well.
