| contents | We propose a foundation model for soccer, which is able to predict subsequent actions in a soccer match from a given input sequence of actions. As a proof of concept, we train a transformer architecture on three seasons of data from a professional soccer league. We quantitatively and qualitatively compare the performance of this transformer architecture to two baseline models: a Markov model and a multi-layer perceptron. Additionally, we discuss potential applications of our model. We provide an open-source implementation of our methods at https://github.com/danielhocevar/Foundation-Model-for-Soccer. |
