Ten match days are played this Bundesliga season already. Let's check how well the different pre-season predictions worked so far. To recall, these were the predictions (sorted by Goalimpact). The closed pre-season rank for each team is highlighted green.
The yellow column in the following table shows the rank correlation of the current table with the predicted table by the different algorithms or sources.
Still a close race. The Euro Club Index catched up with Goalimpact and Bwin since the last backtesting. ClubElo also gained ground and handed the red light to transfermarkt.de. Still all measures are better than just assuming the last years standings.
