Draft SuperComputer: Revolutionising Fantasy Premier League

Draft SuperComputer: Revolutionising Fantasy Premier League

Fantasy Premier League (FPL) has captivated football enthusiasts for over two decades, offering fans the thrill of managing their own teams. The introduction of draft-style leagues in 2017 added a fresh dimension to this experience. However, challenges such as delayed updates and the absence of predictive analytics have left room for improvement.

To address these shortcomings, I developed Draft SuperComputer – an app designed to enhance the FPL draft experience with real-time data and strategic insights.

The Challenge

Next Gameweek View

  1. Upcoming Fixtures: A schedule of upcoming Premier League fixtures and draft league matchups, complete with dates, times, and predicted points to help users plan ahead.


     

  2. Recommended Lineups: Suggested lineups are provided for each team, complete with predicted points. This feature flags potential injuries or other factors that might affect a player’s availability, along with expected minutes and difficulty ratings for the next five matches.


     

  3. Waiver Suggestions: A custom algorithm generates a list of available players who could outperform current team members, enabling smarter transfer decisions.

 

 

Draft SC showcases my skills beyond marketing, combining JavaScript development, UI design, and user functionality. I coded the core logic, crafted a user-friendly interface, and built a seamless signup process to ensure accessibility for all fantasy football enthusiasts.
