Championship Leverage Index

By Tangotiger

Sky gives it to us:

Like Tango’s individual game Leverage Index, the Championship Leverage Index doesn’t exactly tell you anything new, but just quantifies a game’s importance into a useful number. It can be useful in analyzing players’ performance in “big games” as well as looking at things like attendance or TV ratings. It’s also fun just to realize in quantitative terms exactly how much each game matters.
