Stats Perform to Deliver Football Analytics Course with Birkbeck University
Stats Perform, in collaboration with the Birkbeck University, is going to deliver a football analytics module as part of the institution’s Sport Management and Business of Football MSc. This is the second academic year in which Stats Perform is collaborating with the Birkbeck University of London.
The academically accredited module will start on 28 April. It will run for eleven weeks and conclude on July 7. In light of the current global situation, each session will be delivered online by experienced industry professionals possessing first-hand experience of implementing data and analytical processes within the sport.
“Having devised and successfully delivered the first edition of this course in 2019, we are delighted to be continuing our collaboration with Birkbeck to outline the core fundamentals around football analytics,” Stats Perform’s Ben Mackriell said.
“Since delivering last year’s course, the application of applied analytics has continued to evolve as new concepts generated through AI and Machine Learning have been introduced. This remote course can provide both students and industry practitioners with an ideal opportunity to obtain insights which can provide a foundation for them to further understand and apply these concepts throughout their future careers,” Ben Mackriell added.
“I am very happy to be continuing this partnership with Stats Perform. The creation of this module has allowed our institution to enlarge its curricula and the fact that we partner with Stats Perform is a validation of the quality of our work,” Giambattista Rossi, Lecturer at Birkbeck University, said.
“We are currently faced with unprecedented challenges in delivering our academic programme and I am delighted that Stats Perform have committed to delivering each of the module sessions remotely to our enrolled MSc students. With each lecture being delivered by an expert in football analytics, possessing relevant industry experience, we will continue to be able to provide the perfect teaching and studying environment to the students,” Giambattista Rossi added.

Aviator Studio
Aviator Studio Achieves Major Legal Victory in São Paulo
Brazilian courts persist in denying SPRIBE’s injunction efforts as Aviator Studio achieves another two-instance triumph in São Paulo.
Aviator Studio achieved another legal triumph in Brazil as São Paulo courts denied further injunction requests submitted by SPRIBE in cases directly involving Aviator Studio.
Significantly, the recent decisions relate to the direct legal contention between Aviator Studio and SPRIBE, distinct from the previously mentioned cases involving Foggo Entertainment and Betnacional.
After securing consecutive wins in Brazil related to Foggo Entertainment, Aviator Studio has now announced that courts in São Paulo have also ruled in its favor at both judicial levels of the case.
In every instance, the courts denied the immediate actions requested by SPRIBE. Consequently, Aviator Studio and its associates can maintain their operations while the wider AVIATOR trademark conflict advances through the evidential stage.
The rulings contribute to an escalating number of courtroom defeats for SPRIBE in Brazil and further bolster Aviator Studio’s legal stance in the related proceedings linked to the AVIATOR dispute, as associated cases progress in various jurisdictions.
Commenting on the development, representatives from Aviator Studio said: “These outcomes continue to confirm a clear judicial pattern. Attempts to obtain urgent injunctions against Aviator Studio and its partners in Brazil are consistently being rejected by the courts.”
