Much like an athlete’s challenge for improving his or her skills, there are several factors that play a role in making the improvements that lead to winning. First and foremost, knowing the basics of the game that you are targeting are a good place to start. Here’s the short list… 1. Study the past 10 or more years of performance of the team(s) that you are considering. 2. Look for patterns, regardless of the coach or manager, look for their pattern of wins and losses for as many years as you can trace. 3. Your goal is to find such clues as their performance against a superior team… how they play when they’re substantially behind in score… which positions tend to bail them out of a downward spiral or push them deeper into the hole. 4. Your primary take away from your research into teams covers players and attitude and aggressiveness of their play style or lack thereof. 5. At the bottom of your list are the outcomes of a team’s performance at away games VS home games.
