Features

• Simple Prediction Model using Javascript's filter and sort algorithms to obtain a shortlist of 5 'captainable' players.

WishList

• Analyze players news data using the chatgpt api's to improve accuracy of the prediction model.
• Playing Position: Take into account the playing position of players and their role in the team. Certain positions, such as forwards or attacking midfielders, may have higher potential for captaincy points due to goal-scoring opportunities.
• Bonus Point Potential: Factor in players' potential to earn bonus points based on their contributions beyond goals and assists, such as clean sheets for defenders or midfielders.
• Fixture Rotation Risk: Evaluate the risk of fixture rotation for players, especially in teams with deep squads or busy schedules, as it may impact their playing time and captaincy potential.
