In modeling this peculiar ranking, the supercomputer took into account numerous factors. The most important indicators were expected goals (xG), market value of teams and individual players (data from Transfermarkt), as well as the Elo rating (ranking system for national teams).
As a result, in this conditional standings from Ukraine were Donetsk “Shakhtar” (1st place), Kyiv “Dynamo” (3rd), Zhytomyr “Polesie” (11th), Lviv “Karpaty” (13th) and “Alexandria” (14th).
