  • The Business World of Russian Football
    THESIS – BACHELOR'S DEGREE PROGRAMME SOCIAL SCIENCES, BUSINESS AND ADMINISTRATION THE BUSINESS WORLD OF RUSSIAN FOOTBALL Issues and Prospects AUTHOR : Roman Andreev LI17SP SAVONIA UNIVERSITY OF APPLIED SCIENCES THESIS Abstract Field of Study Social Sciences, Business and Administration Degree Programme Degree Programme in Business and Administration Author Roman Andreev Title of Thesis The Business World of Russian Football. Issues and Prospects Date 10.12.2020 Pages/Appendices 70/0 Client Organisation /Partners Abstract Beyond any doubt, football, known as soccer in North America, remains to be one of the most influential sport games in the history of humanity. Up to this day, soccer continues to captivate billions of sports enthu- siasts all over the globe. Football has achieved great recognition, and it is now considered the most popular sport in the world. Nowadays it is appropriate and entirely justified to talk about the emergence of the foot- ball industry. Basically, modern soccer can be viewed as an international business, since global player trans- fers are made on a regular basis and international professional tournaments are organized. Moreover, soccer leagues may be now rightfully classified as separate commercialized industries. Certain football tournaments perform much better than their competitors in a business sense. In this work, the Russian Premier League in particular is discussed. The aim of the study is to investigate the historic and current issues of Russian soccer, the reasons for their emergence, and the present state. Furthermore, the commercial prospects and possibilities for local football’s business development are inspected. Potential solu- tions to the outlined problems are demonstrated as well.

Previous meetings • Group A rivals Germany and Serbia have met only once in this competition, qualifying included: in the opening game of the 2006 final tournament. A 61st-minute goal from Eugen Polanski earned Germany a 1-0 win against what was then Serbia and Montenegro. • The teams at the Estádio Cidade de Barcelos on 23 May 2006 were: Serbia and Montenegro: Stojković, Ivanović, Stepanov, Biševac, Lomić, Basta, Krasić, Milovanović (Milijaš 68), Vukčević (Todorović 77), Janković (Purović 65), Vučinić. Germany: Rensing, Volz, Sinkiewicz, Matip, Fathi, Lehmann, Polanski (Castro 68), Schulz, Hilbert (Brzenska 90+2), Kiessling, Nando Rafael (Eigler 77). • The result was a false omen: Germany did not pick up another point and bowed out at the end of the group stage after finishing in a three-way tie for second behind France. Serbia and Montenegro went through on goal difference but lost 5-4 on penalties to Ukraine in the last four after a goalless 120 minutes. Match background • Germany have only gone beyond the last eight twice in nine previous final tournament appearances, in 1982 and 2009, meeting England in the final on each occasion.

The calendar of the football season of the Russian Premier League, as well as other leading European championships, is designed in such a way that several matches can take place in one period of time. This situation has be- come more common after the pause associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, due to the match schedule densification. The broadcaster needs to determine which match will be live shown on the main channel. Also, he can provide ac- cess to all broadcasts of the championship round for paid channels and recom- mend the most spectacular matches for viewers to watch. The start time of the matches in the modern world is chosen by agreement of the League and televi- sion, so it would be really convenient to put potentially the most spectacular matches on prime time. This paper introduces the concept of the entertainment index, which takes into account goals and other important events of the match. The value of the entertainment index for upcoming matches is predicted using a machine learning model based on historical data.
