Abstract
The balance of competition is one of the most critical factors in increasing the attractiveness of football. Football clubs have to have high competitive power, primarily to compete internationally. This direction examines the balance of competition in the last ten seasons in Europe's Big Five Leagues and the Turkish Super League. The study used an extensive data set covering the league scores of 196 clubs in the last ten seasons and C5, C5ICB, HHI, and HICB indices between 2011/12-2020/21 seasons in Europe's Big Five and Turkish Super League analysis of the data. It has been determined that there has been a general decrease in the competitive balance of the last ten seasons in Europe's Big Five Leagues, while an increase has been observed in the Turkish Super League. Competition in Italy, Spain, Germany and England Leagues is lower than in Turkey and France. It can be said that the Turkish Super League is more balanced in terms of competitiveness compared to the Big Five Leagues. It has been concluded that the teams' economic situation can be considered a priority factor in determining the competitive balance. Super League clubs have substantial financial resources, incorporation, development of youth development systems (infrastructure), managerial measures to increase broadcasting, matchday and commercial revenues, corporate governance principles, and different incomes to be competitive and have a solid economic structure. It is recommended to cooperate with professionals in the creation of resources.
